I bought a Jobo 1520 tank from B&H - since it's cheaper to get a new one from there than to get a used one from ebay - I broke the lid of mine a couple of days ago (it's quite old). I resisted the urge to buy

great for drinking used developer....

Yeah- you don't want to accidentally confuse the one for the other and end up drinking your fixer.

I don't remember if I told the saga of my Pentax LX on here (long story short - has an issue with the film advance, and getting it repaired will cost $350 and take 7+ months). Well, one popped up on Ebay the other day with recent servicing, reseller warranty, customs and shipping included, for $350. So I treated myself to it. Should arrive Thursday.

I bought a nice condition Leica IIf Red Dial from KEH in December.

A black Pen FT with the 38mm f2.8 pancake lens. Having an issue with the counter I need to fix but it's clean and everything else works well and the price was right. Can't keep track of 74 frames without a working counter though.

Got two 1.5" D Rings In Shackle (these: D https://pacifictrimming.com/product...6v5k4zDGgXp9aq8EjYuZK_IAJafZCjQk8S2wtMskjGVQ0) in gunmetal grey a few days ago to add to my messenger bag, easier to attach my bag strap to it.

Got them in the mail today, one was easy to put on, the other was a pain (took like 10 minutes to get the rod part in, but got it done)

Reveni Labs autocolimator. Was able to nail infinity focus (off film) on my Agfa Isolette with a degree of precision that I couldn't achieve before.

Ok- the new-to-me Pentax LX arrived yesterday, and I put a roll through it to test the film advance and it seems to be working!

I replaced a cracked knob on a Calumet Green Monster. 1/4-inch knob screws aren't readily available in Japan, so I bought a “Knob Star” (product name) and hex bolt and nut and combined them. It looks funny, but it's practically fine.

This Arnold Newman book:

Discovered his signature inside after I got home.

I just bought a Kodak Twin 20 (bottom loading, horizontal transport 620 with bright finder and Galilean finder). Intended fate is to use the film transport in a tea tin camera, possibly interchangeable between pinhole and a lens.
