a pro-pack of Tri-X 120.
I have no idea what you talking about.Having to do more and more digital video for work, so I got a Blackmagic Pocket 4K and a couple of MFT lenses along with adapters for my c-mount, FD, and EF mount lenses, along with various other doo-dads to make it all work.
You won't regret it but it's way more economical to make your ownSome Pyrocat HD in glycol from PF. After so many years of reading about this developer it is time to try it.

More little screws from McMaster Carr. This time some black oxide 18-8 stainless steel flathead M2 x 0.4mm x 8mm screws, oh and a tap and drill bit so I can mount a Chamonix Lens Iris onto a Sinar board. Could have “through bolted” it but were's the fun in that. I got the lens board bored out for the lens iris, just need to locate the holes accurately. Unfortunately my transfer punch set doesn’t go down small enough so I’ll have to see if I can turn something on the lathe. To that end I ordered a gage pin set so that I can accurately measure the hole diameter. LOL,my little machinist hobby is just as bad as photography when it come to GAS. I’m fortunate in that I inherited a lathe and bench top milling machine along with a lot of tooling from my father. I post a photo when the project is complete.

As promised, here a couple photos of the lens diaphragm mounted on a Sinar board. I needed 7mm long screws which weren’t available so I made a little bushing so I could shorten the screws on my lathe.

Good to know you have a ready fix at hand and are able to do this yourself.
David Vestal was one of the premiere authors back in the day on darkroom work and key contributor for Darkroom & Creative Camera Techniques magazine. I always liked his writings."The Craft of Photography" by David Vestal (1974, signed by author!)
A dollar at a local library book sale.
Don't ask me why this (donated) book is not kept, and put in circulation...
Honestly, I did not know about the author (seems recognized), but the book layout was pleasing, always a good sign, and the price was right!
EDIT: it seems the book is downloadable from the Internet Archive!
Jobo CPE2 with Lift, 2500 series drums with reels for all roll film and up to 4x5 sheets.
Durst L1200 with CLS450 head.
There were more Merrys but can’t disclose everythingSo it was Merry Christmas for you!
Should I look for a Cosina, Sears, or Chinon body to spice things up?
After much drooling, I got a Tachihara 4x5 to complement my Calumet monorail.
