Someone is on permanent Ignore. Wish the name didn't even appear.

Excellent. Makes refutation much easier when multiple posts aren't necessary to convincingly achieve it.

Any luck in finding a 4x5 mixing chamber?

[Jay Wolfe]

Of course not. What can you post other than further arm-waving irrelevancies?

I scan and pass by most of the things you post, Drew. My responses to a select few of them are submitted for the sole purpose of correcting erroneous information that new readers might be mislead into believing as a result of your know-everything-about-everything attitude and 15,000+ loquaciousness.

A perfect example of irrelevant arm-waving.

The OP has a medium format mixing box. No amount of corner and edge burning-in will accomplish anything with a 4x5 negative.

Of course, that's the whole point. Why do you persist waving your arms about building things, longer lenses and edge burning when the OP has a commercially produced enlarger with one incorrect part that simply needs replacing with the correct one?

Gadfly? Pot, meet kettle.

Usually Drew is waving something else which is equally unimpressive!

Maybe someday he will post some his impressive images and pix of his impressive physique. Until then it’s just long winded hot air.

Unfortunately not so far...been looking on Craigslist, LF Forum, Phototrio, Ebay and KHB. I contacted KHB, but unfortunately they are out of stock. In terms of ebay, they're selling the entire unit as opposed to the mixing box and neither sellers who I contacted have mentioned the condition of the mixing box. I did however inquire about it today. Hopefully, something will turn up!

[Drew Wiley]

One more to Ignore. Thanks for making it easy.

Looks like you can special order one on B&H new. But I'm sure a 45 box will show up for auction. They're pretty common. Hang in there!

[xvelids]

Thanks! I actually visited B&H on Tuesday and unfortunately, it's on back order. I hope to see one soon!

It looks like KHB has both the internal styrofoam mixing box and a replacement 4x5 diffuser in stock. You might be able to strip your medium format box and install those. Might be worth asking them if it is possible solution for you.

Hope that helps.

Yes if you can get or make the 4x5 version you can use that for everything smaller too.
