So, I have this pile of 4x5 color transparencies...and, what the heck do I do with them? I'm getting real tired of holding 'em up to the kitchen (north facing) window to share 'em with friends and family.
I was thinking of rigging up a slide projector of sorts. I have a few..."under utilized" Omega D series enlargers in various states of decay laying around the garage and I thought maybe, I could rig something up with some of these bits.
Has anybody done this?
Is it feasible?
Seems like there are a few difficulties to work out...
1) how to keep the condensers from tumbling out when oriented in the horizontal?
2) seems like the negative carrier is kinda clamped in place by the weight of the lamp hose/ condensers...would need some sort of springs or something?
3) How to keep from melting the slides? Would a cold light head work better?
would it work at all?
