I use glass shelves salvaged from a junked fridge for squeege boards. My print dryer is made out of scrap plywood and chipboard and a blow dryer for heat and cake cooling racks from Dollar Tree.

Go to Harbor Freight and buy some welding gloves.
PM Drew Wiley-if anybody knows, he does.
And now you know why my dad's nickname for me was "The Finder" !
Have you tried Edmund Scientific in Barrington NJ?
If you're using the 7.5%/15% narrow metering attachment, here are the EV value adjustments:
For 15% setting-Plus 1.5 EV

In several episodes, you'll see him with a Leica M3 in a belt holster.
I got the legs for the Majestic at a flea market about 1988 for a blistering $5. I had an adapter made so I could mount a Bogen 3047 head on it.
Us real men use a old "Chicago" Majestic....
ic-racer...where did you find this picture?
It's RUNG!
Why do I think of the Martian war machines when I look at that picture?
Haloid was the company that became Xerox.
Guys, Gorilla Glue epoxy is even stronger than J-B Weld. It costs more $$ but IMHO it's worth it.
Duolab, the Calumet wide angle model is the 402.
Guys-
Just go to Amazon and order a cheap $3.99 stainless steel dental inspection mirror!
Dan, I've been on here since at least 2017! I'm the same MrFujicaman from Rangefinder Forum.
Duolab-go look at my posts about my building my darkroom and look at my homemade water chiller.
Ditto on the truck bed liner. I built my darkroom sink with it 5 years ago and it's never leaked.
Dang, I thought this was a thread about selfies!
Anybody got a PDF of one for a Weston Ranger 9 ?
Post a picture of the cart when it's finished!
If your going to go WAY back into the woods, buy, rent or borrow a satellite phone! Yeah, it's expensive-but how much is your life worth to you?
I recall reading that Ansel's formal education ended in the 8th grade.
Guys, go take a look at post #120 and post #122 in Daniel Unkefer's thread " Darkroom Renovation Phase 1". Dan used a driveway rainwater drain. That's pre-made and saves time-also the ones at Home...
Defective batteries happen. I once bought a 24 pack of AA cells to power my Agfatronic 643CS for a wedding. I got to the wedding and the flash wouldn't work. When I got home, I tested the...
Nope..since granite countertops are all the rage, many of the shops seem to have fair sized scraps left over. Look on Craigslist under materials.
How about a slab of granite from a counter store with threaded inserts at each corner?
Why did an image of a headless enlarger riding a black fire breathing horse come to mind when I saw this thread ?
Domaz...that 45 H is on a baseboard...
Nope, Duolab...it's a Beseler 45H like I have. Near as I can figure, this was Beseler's economy 4 X 5 model back in the late 1950's-early 1960's. Uses a 23C frame and the head assembly from a 4 x 5...
I figured it out....100 ft of film is 19 36 exposure rolls full frame-you would get 1368 exposures. that ought to keep you busy!
Oh...269 means it will handle up to a 6 by 9 neg.
Does it have the carrier with the tiny glass focusing target? I know the 450's and the 470's did.
Randy, what model Federal is that?
Dollar Tree has them from time to time.
Okay, here's shot of my film dryer. I used a metal locker from Ollie's and an old bonnet style hair dryer and a air filter for a riding mower to filter the incoming air.219787
Okay, I thought I'd post some pictures of the last details of my darkroom.219783. I'd never been thrilled with the amount of air movement in the darkroom because of the light trap I had to install on...
Just think what O. Winston Link could have done with strobes like this!
