A Dremel type tool so that I can cut down some 120 spools and glue them together to be extenders, so that I can try to run 120 film through a big Kodak 3A 122 film camera to get 6x14 images.

A roll film adaptor to fit a 3x4 Graflex and it doesn't require a Graflock back. New in its box, complete with instructions and all hardware.
From an antique store, and I just happen to have 3x4 Speed to try it out on.

Not really sexy purchases, but necessary. I need some paper, too. And, I have my eye on a camera...

Yeah, for the first time in a long time I'm running low on paper. On my last box of 11x14 Ilford MGIV. Going to order some Classic soon. I tried a small 10-sheet box and it was really gorgeous paper.

NedL · Feb 11, 2015

A whole pad of Canson Vidalon Vellum ( enough to make 100 7x11 inch calotypes! ) and five 24x38 inch sheets of blotter.

MattKrull · Feb 12, 2015

I just ordered a 100 pack of Oriental VC-RCII 5x7, some rapid fixer, and a 4-in-1 easel (which, since I mostly print standard borders, should be much easier than my wonderful, but awkward four blade 11x14 easel). It's winter, it's too cold to shoot so it's time to print!

Ashfaque · Feb 14, 2015

Kaiser Slimlite LED (2448) light box - a quite thin and very good 5x7 inch light box. Also got Microphen, Rollei RPX 400 (100 feet bulk roll), 5 rolls of Adox CMS 20 II (35mm), TMX (120), and TMY-2 (120). One happy bunny.

Ian Grant · Feb 15, 2015

5 boxes of a dozen quarter plates, could have had another 20, Imperial Orthochrome, Imperial Fine Grain Ordinary, Illingworth's Ordinary, and 2 boxes Illingsworth Ortho Fast. One box of a dozen half plate Edwards Ordinary plates

Box of "Tabloid" Amidol, looks to be in good condition

2 Kodak Beehive safelight filters. will be in use tonight.

6 retaining rings/flanges, all around Compur #1, 2 already in use.

105mm f4.5 Tominon lens in a Copal Polaroid (Press) shutter. it appears to be brand new no makes at all. If I hadn't spotted it early it would have been marked/scratched as it was with a binch of lenses on a table.

Yashica 124G from canindya on this very forum. Instant delivery, better than described, to say I'm delighted is an understatement...

You certainly make some wonderful discoveries Ian. I bet your Amidol is fine. I bought some pre-war stock from a little shop in Leeds during 1982. It was all sealed. It was perfect and lasted me twenty years...

I'd been promised the Glass plates for some time, the Amidol was in the same wooden box - there's a sealed tube of 2g and another sealed bottle of Amidol tablets. I have some more, a sealed bottle of Ilford Amidol made by Johnsons and quite a bit more I had from Hogg Laboratory Supplies when they dropped photo chemistry.

You'll enjoy the Yashica 124 mine came from a forum member and I've been very pleased with the images I've made with it, the light meter's OK as well accurate if you're used to using on camera meters.
