Good to know.. the only thing that just kills me with with that idea is 240CAD (approx $185) for something that cost maybe $40 in parts... I have all the parts, just need to know how to wire it up. ...
Thanks to both of you for the replies.. I did send a message inquiring on the best way to wire a bulgin plug on Odyssey's site but haven't heard anything back...
Pitotshock, Yes, I'm hoping to...
Here's a curve ball for those darkroom dwellers interested in taking a bat at it... This all revolves around printing color RA4 prints using a Colorline 5000 analyzer and a Devere 504 (Dichromat...
Thanks for the replies guys. Will take a closer look at the sockets and attempting to measure voltage ... much appreciation.
Hi Folks,
Long time no post.
Having been side tracked with other activities and other gear, I have to admit I've neglected by Durst 138/139 CLS-301 combo. However, recently I came across...
Hmmm... that's good feedback almostpilot. Well, unless there are there different versions of the devere twin lamp 504 then we know the transformer isnt in the lightsource, and must be in the power...
It's been a few weeks, but I believe the fans are screwed to the side walls via screws w/ nuts and held firmly. There was foam sealing all the way around the fan to maximize suction, which I...
Did you ever get this sorted out? It's been a while, but I just went through this myself recently...I recently acquired a 504 Dichro MkV head and took it completely apart to clean out the dichroic...
Do you have a link to the facebook post your referring to? I'm not seeing anything on facebook indicating they're halting production..
Just picked up a Sinar Biocular Reflex Viewer and while it's mounted to the back it tends to pull on the back so that it hangs a little at the top. Seems like it's too heavy for the spring. Does...
Peter: I don't want to switch. I just wanted to have it as a backup in the event of a failure of the Trans Stab. That's all.
Phil: Yep, same here with the electro-magnetic shutter.. I was...
Hey Guys,
Here's another one...
I currently have a functioning 504 MkV Dichromat color head with it's matching Trans Stab 500. Along with the combo came an orphan Switch Stab 500 that the...
Thanks for the all the assistance gentlemen. This has been very helpful.
Hey guys, how thick are your baseboards? Should I go with 3/4" or double up and go 1.5"?
Thanks guys!
Luis, is yours a floor standing or desktop? From the pics it looks like it might be floor standing, which would explain the larger baseboard. Just curious...
Edit: Just missed Peter's post by 2 minutes.. :eek: Thanks Peter for the great detail you provided!! Those pics are very helpful.
Original post: Okay.. I answered some of own questions. I...
Thanks Luis. I actually have the KHB manual in front of me. It doesn't really go into detail on baseboard size or how it attaches to the bottom chassis casting. The bottom of the casting has 4...
Just picked up a Devere 504 bottom casting to marry to the 504 wall mount version I currently have in storage. Can anyone with a 504 desktop version provide me the dimensions of the baseboard so I...
Just a quick follow up for anyone down the road with this question. I received a quick call back from Eseco Speedmaster's Service Manager with some calibration instructions, an email copy of the...
I've calibrated X-Rite 810 and 811's and have my step wedges, just can't figure out how to get this Eseco 5045 T-85CD calibrated without any instructions. Would appreciate it if anyone out there...
Just as a side note.. be aware that the Artograph has a delay (1/2 second maybe) that needs to be accounted for each time it's turned on. This might be an issue.. might not... I know for me it was...
No mix up with the lenses.
In the initial test, I noted the the lens used in the each of the exposure files in the ExpoDev software on my iphone. Each film holder's labeled side and it's # was...
Ok. Here's a new capture of the Fuji at F22 & 1/4'. It's the best I could do with the lighting. Also, below are new snips of the original Rodenstock images without the clipping function on. I'm only...
Agreed Ken. But that wasn't an issue with the other lens though and they were both shot under the same conditions. I'm going to reshoot the Fuji now in hopes it was something like that and it is...
Getting ready to re-shoot the Fuji shot Drew. If you list the variables that should be pegged, I'll make my best attempt to account for them. The two variables that I want to re-confirm. 1) Was...
Gotcha. I'm going to re-shoot the Fuji and post an update taking that into account. Thanks for the example.
Agreed. Let's not get hung up on little things like that though... That value is just what ExpoDev suggested the film be exposed to, nothing more. The point of the post is not about the method...
Thanks for the reply Ken. Your work has been inspirational to me... Thanks for keeping your site up. Since you asked:
1. I really have no idea.. Any way to verify this?
2. The brick oven...

Again, take it for what it is.. Just a side by side comparison. Hope someone finds it...
I'm posting this in the interest of sharing. No need for flaming or negative commentary. Please don't consider this a scientific test or conclusive in any way. I do plan to do another round of...
Tim, I'd be interested in being part of a bulk order...
Yep. It was a 4x5. Some confusion with a local seller lead to a misunderstanding.... Hey dsphotog, there used to be an old song... " video killed the radio star"... That ended not being true as...
Looks like it might be.. thanks!!
Was curious if anyone here has seen this kit camera before and might have a bit more information about it...
Thanks for any info...

Yep. Thanks for the input Drew. Sounds like you're pretty familiar with these things. It came out great though... I've got measurements if anyone needs them. For those interested, here's some...
In all seriousness.. anyone attempting this should be very careful. I'd say the most dangerous part was actually the miter saw. The blade has a tendency to want to catch the aluminum and eat...
Thanks! I actually picked up an Aristo D2 head for $15 on eBay about a month back.. I've been playing with RA4 on an AC800, so I like the flexibility of the Dichro heads... I've been on the hunt for...
Hey guys... thought some of you might find this interesting...
I picked up a Durst 138s (actually a 139, as it has the 184 base) a while ago and one of the ideas I've toyed with is replacing the...
Too bad this project failed...
That said, I live in the area and during the last open house Clyde was selling prints hand over fist, one of which was a large $6000 print and that was just while I...
