Information on Durst L1000 Condenser

[Colin Myers]

Hi,
Does any form member, have one of these old Durst Laborator 1000 enlargers, with condenser head, and would be prepared to let me have some measurements or photos of part of the head. I have been charged with disposing of one,following a bereavement and it appears to be missing something!
Hope someone may be able to help

Hi Colin
The attached photos are of the condenser head from my Durst Laborator L1000, if it is the same as yours I would be happy to help.

Hello Tony,
Thank you for your very prompt offer of help and photographs.
Sadly, your enlarger appears dramatically different to my problem machine.
Many thanks anyway
Best Regards
Colin

I have one and would be happy to send you photos and measurements (and a scan of the appropriate part of the manual if you need it), but unfortunately I'm away from home for a week. If no one can do it earlier, I'll do it when I get home. My condenser head doesn't look like Tony's, but does look like the one in the manual I received with the enlarger. I think it's a Taupo? - but maybe that's the diffusion head. Remind me in a week if you still need it.

Thanks to everyone who volounteered help.
Michael came up with the relevant information for me and I can now manufacture the
missing part , prior to sale of the enlarger.
Thanks everyone. A powerful demonstration of one of the many strengths of this forum.
