I do not have nearly as much experience with Fomapan 200 as you do, but, for what it's worth, here are my results with replenished XTOL. I think XTOL-R is a good choice for this film, as it can easily produce a range of contrast, without it running away too easily.

So, is EDU Ultra 200 and Fomapan 200 the same?

It's been my understanding that all the .EDU Ultra films are rebranded Fomapan of the same speed. Freestyle, after all, doesn't have their own coating capability, so they have to buy the actual film stock from somewhere, regardless where they have it confectioned.

A non- functional Master V meter, with two cases and the Intercone attachment.

Also, a renewed new year of Amazon.com , Prime, for film, battery, chemical purchases, without shipping, plus the video channels that include thousands of photographic and arts content on YouTube, which gets the greatest portion of T.V. viewing I do, which includes loads of pinhole construction and use insights.

Great point about the shutter curtain.
I haven't tried it out yet and didn't get instructions but presumed these screws are for tweaking it to fit. Is yours the same design?
Here is another pic from the auction:

Looks the same. I don't know how many variants they made. Maybe one, maybe several, but yours looks exactly like mine.

Where are the veritical panels of plexiglass that are arranged across the bottom?

? I have never owned one before. I am unaware there were supposed to be panels on the bottom. Are they identical to the ones on the top?

Edit: went back down and looked at it. The vertical panes fit into grooves on the bottom and the top has the two removable, grooved panels that sit on the top. I see no means of adding additional support on the bottom.

😕

All in very good nick. Not that I particularly wanted one, but for just two English pounds at an autojumble today what's not to like?
Always admired the earlier M42 mount Fujicas for their compactness and handling.

Each slot should have a vertical partition that fits in it. Contact the seller. Replacing each partition will be expensive, I had to replace two and it was not cheap.

The white panels on top are there to keep the paper from floating above the water level.

I picked up one of the Calumet washers from a fellow who purchased it new, he never used it once. The protective paper was still on the dividers, after sitting 10 years that stuff requires quite a bit of a tug to remove.

OK, I see where there are 11 slots and only 6 dividers, but that's fine by me; I paid zilch for it. If i need more, I'll just rip some sheet plexiglass down with a table saw.

It certainly dominates my small darkroom sink!

I have a couple smaller print washers that take (for an example) 12 11x14 prints but can take 6 16x20s by placing the print so that it "straddles" a divider ie you have 10 inches each of the longer 16x 20 in 2 separate slots. This may be why there's a couple dividers out of place.
