    The CLS1840 is similar to that picture, except... only 1 cooling fan (the upper one), and the top sheet metal "lid" has no provision for an exhaust hose (no metal flange to connect the hose). The...

    I would echo the advice on the strap wrench. Or, if the front element does not protrude from the barrel, simply set the front barrel down on a rubber sheet or something with friction, and press down...

    Re: X-Rite 810 spare parts

    X-Rite has replacement parts, but they tend to be expensive. You might be ahead to return the defective item, or at least ask for some compensation from the seller.

    Re: Zone VI enlarger questions

    I have made several Zone VI lensboards. They are simple sheet steel, about 18 gauge, and can be easily cut with tin snips and hand filed. Much cheaper than anything you can buy now or have made.

    Re: Delta 1 flow meter?

    You might try Dwyer Instruments (http://www.dwyer-inst.com/). I bought some plastic gas flowmeters about 10 years ago, and they continue to operate reliably.

    Re: Power load requirements

    In addition to the three 120V circuits, consider one 240V 20A circuit. You might acquire something in the future that needs the higher voltage.
