G'day everyone,
I've got 8x10 and 11x14 enlarging eazels for my Durst enlarger. I plan on (eventually) rotating the enlarging head around, so that the light is projected onto the floor, as opposed to being projected onto the base board. With the enlarger on a table, this should allow for relatively large enlargements (I'm aiming for 20x24).
My question is this: to project onto the floor, is it essential that I source a 20x24 eazel? I'm guessing that the eazel itself is just used to ensure the paper is flat and square? If I put a piece of timber on the floor and 'stretch' the paper flat between some paper weights, will this have the same effect? I only ask because those larger eazels are quite rare and very expensive!
Cheers!
