Don't send it to grimes.They wanted to charge me fourty dollars just to tell me they couldn't fix it. I had the same problem.
The last time I took a trip the TSA broke the ground glass on my 8x10. They put a film holder on the glass and closed the case
on it.Good luck with your note.My hunch is they really don't give a...

Has anyone out there been using classic 200 or 400 for pt and pd printing If so what have you been using as a developer and what speed have you shooting the film at thanks
For 8x10 you really don't need a print frame. The glass does need to be heavy and larger than 8x10 11x14 would be fine also make shure the surface you are placing the paper on is smooth Good luck
