I have used my Travelwide on and off for a while. It is till all intact. I treat it carefully because it does feel a bit fragile. Attached is a flickr album with 6 images if anyone is interested....

This timer is the same as the Ilford DT600. Apparently Ilford purchased CP. I found that manual on line. A teenager wouldn't figure this one out. It is designed to also use a card reader and has the...

A search shows that another member asked the same question in 2010 without results, but I will try again.

I have acquired the above named electronic enlarger timer at a swap meet. It appears to...

my situation is the same as AuditorOne, no problem yet, but would like to buy insurance. Pleaase add me to the "prospective purchasor" list.

thanks for the reply Jim, but not sure your answer is totally correct
because the plate holders we used (at least the ones I used at GEH) did have flaps on the end just like film holders
and these...

you may have seen my post in the "want to buy" section
just came back from the George Eastman House workshop
where we coated, then shot 4x5 glass plates
I want to do this at home but don't have...

there is a chap in Toronto (Roman Gutman) that works on film cameras
he has done an LF shutter for me
here is his email

gutmanrom@hotmail.com

you can send him an email and ask

I looked and didn't see any post of yours on APUG. I find there is often a goodly number of people advertising Omega enlarger parts on APUG. I suggest you put a WTB post there also.

I enjoyed the interview (and the pictures). You responded well.

Photographers forumlary are still offering workshops and still have the same B&B arrangement I did a platinum palladium (with digital negatives) workshop with Kerik Kouklis last August. Great...

the following image is from another of my Travelwide outings (scan of a darkroom print)
and also a print of the same negative used for a cyanotyped (post #31 above)

So I have had several outings with my Travelwide now
it is a learning process figuring out what works for you
so far my hand held shots leave a bit to be desired
these two were taken on a tripod...

Eric, thanks for the response.

For others, here is further information that I learned in connection to my question about the Epson P600 printer. It is useful to know. This was the reply I got on...

thanks for the response Erik. Are you using the P600 with the Epson inks or the Cone inks?. Are you printing with QTR?

Here is a question about what is a good replacement Epson photo printer for digital negatives. I searched the group for posts on this topic and couldn't find any information. My Epson R2400...

For some time I have had an interest in experimenting with Bromoil prints. What has deterred me is reading that it has become very difficult to find photographic paper that has not been "super...

yes I did
if not at home the alternative is to pick up at the post office and pay there, as I am sure you are aware

Andrew, to give you some frame of reference, it arrived via Canada Post and the charges were $10 for handling plus sales tax.

Mine arrived today in Toronto Canada
happy camper here….


p.s.
and I know all of our US and other international friends are biting their nails wondering how our national election will turn out....

since the number I was given looked like a USPS number I seem to have mistakenly assumed that this was how the parcel was coming
the embedded link in the email (which now works) only tells me the...

I just checked my email
mine is being shipped
to Toronto, Ontario, CA

maybe someone thought CA stands for Canada

but the Canadian postal code is correct

I was also wondering why the...

and another "non-US" has been shipped, got my tracking number today…….looking forward to receiving it (backer #22)
a big thank you…!

Andrew, at first I thought it wasn't there either. It takes a bit of searching. I am using a Mac. My search involved: 1. hitting the "Me" icon 2. viewing the list of backed projects in two places....

there is actually a wikipedia page which relates to Arbus's picture "boy with grenade". The page includes quotes from that boy
...

your question is interesting
I was faced with the same dilemma
I had Arches Platine on hand which I suspected would work well
but it is not cheap
so I purchased some water-colour paper which was...

yes I added several drops of citric acid

Thanks Sandy, I spend 60% of my time on Gabriola now
but I am giving my darkroom a good workout
and as you see am also exercising my UV Plate Burner

tomorrow I head to Condon Montana to spend a...

Thanks Korak, it was the new Ware formula. I made life easy for myself and purchased the Photographers Formulary kit. Some of my reading told me that I might expect a challenge from the choice of...

finally created my first alternative process print
from a 4x5 negative
Cyanotype on Canson Aquarelle watercolor paper

your work never ceases to amaze, what a talented creative person you are, just keep posting so we can all enjoy and set goals for ourselves of what is possible to achieve….

can't believe no one has commented on this yet
what a great street shot
well done

this will not work for you in my opinion. Without question you will be paying the higher premium on the value you declared, but don't expect to get that amount of money back if you have a loss. We...

The Paterson Orbital (if used carefully) does a good job, and they are more available, and more plentiful, on Ebay in the UK than they are in North America

but a wonderful portrait nonetheless

and I expected that the first posts after the update (which I also got) would be rants about "late again"
I am personally glad they are taking the time to fix the problems and put out a good...

Hey that's not bad….
(and yes I did look at it first….)
