An enlarger that comes with a *desk*???  One can only blink vacantly, in
stunned contemplation...

Good lord.  Have you had an engineer around to check out the house's support
beams?  With a couple of 138s, adn this beast's complement of toys, the
stress on the floor must be considerably more than would be caused by the
average lounge suite, one would think.

I just had this vivid fantasy of finding such a paper roll machine, and
discovering that it was loaded with Agfa Brovira...  Damn -- doesn't look
like I'll get much useful work done today, with that sort of thought
rattling about in my head.



> How are you getting on with the Durst?

Very, very well.  I love this exquisite machine, and wish I had more time to
make negatives for it.  Oh, if only I had it back in the '70s, when I was a
young bachelor completely obsessed with photography, and nothing else to
chew up my time...

Do you have photos of the new toy up on f32?

Cheers,
