Want to Buy WTB: Foot part for Meopta Opemus 5

[Jerevan]

I am looking for the metal "foot", that goes into the enlarger baseboard. I am restoring a botched-job Meopta, and I hope someone has a spare lurking in a cupboard. I have no idea if the foot is common between different Meoptas. It would be sad to just throw it away.

I don't know how many of these opemusses I have thrown out the past year..... Many, I tell you...

I'll see if any survieved..

I hope something survived...

I can imagine quite a few darkroom things going in the trash bin nowadays, just because there isn't space to store it, let alone use all of it.

I managed to get the Meopta up and running yesterday. It turned out that some parts of the enlarger were remade (welded and repainted, rather nice job) so I was lucky to have another one partially wrecked downstairs that I could pick parts off.
