How do the holders with "fins" fit in the laraneg - or do they??

My holder (upper left; parts circled in green) does not have these "fins".

Hello, I also have an L184 with CLS 1840 color head. It's a project. I don't think I have all the negative carrier parts. I don't have the insert with the "fins" on the side. Does this hold the glass...

Thanks!

Thanks! Very helpful. I've come across a couple manuals, but they are more product brochures. Can you point me to the full text manual for the 184 with all the details?

Thanks Andrea, Can you describe how the nega 205 fits on the Durst 184? Or show pics? Is this a generation preceeding the Laraneg? My Laraneg is sort of incomplete & slightly broken; so perhaps if I...

Nice jobe restoring it.

Is the nega 205 a 10 x 10 format? Is it the housing that accepts the negative carrier, or is it the negative carrier itself? Does it have glass in it? Does it work with...

Cool, someone on the FB group "The Darkroom" told me they were made by HK. But I have been unable to find any pics of HK negative carriers or these negative carriers. Anyway, for the moment they are...

I finally figured out what this part is (that came with a random pile of parts from my newly acquired Durst 184). It's a glassless negative carrier!

Have any of you seen something like this? Who...

Looks like a little superficial rust, those are thick pieces of steel, it would take lot for that superficial rust to become a structural problem. You could brush it out with soft steel wool, and put...

Hi Brian - and others,

Can you post pics of how the glass is held within the 10x10 negative carrier? And how the negative is held between the glass - is it just "freely" sandwiched there?

I...

I see, this almost looks like mine, but yours has the two tabs with screw-nuts on the sides; mine does not.

How does the glass fit within the insert? Can you post pics?

My L184 / L1840 came...

Is this post missing pictures? I don't see anything. I am looking for pics of a complete and working Laraneg with glass in it. Can someone point me to pics? I'm still looking...

Awesome, thanks, I'm going to have to rebuild my Durst Laraneg 10x10.

Is all scanner glass AN (tempered or not) and adequate to make a negative carrier from?

Is AN glass or flatbed glass tempered??

If not, and flatbed scanner glass would make a nice substitute, you could scavenge the glass from flatbed scanners and cut it to size on a waterjet.

I...

Hmmm, that is an interesting base; the base arms are parallel. Mine is not like that, as the base arms form a "V" in the middle. Maybe a L1840 on an L184 chassis as ic-racer suggested? I had assumed...

How much is AN glass for the Laraneg carrier? I definitely need some kind of glass because: 1) there is none; and 2) I can't figure out how to hold the negative in the negative carrier. I've heard...

Here are pics of the power supply for the motorized focus. It appears to be separate from any other electronics.

Thanks Drew, there is a horizontal shaft inside the housing that engages the two geared vertical lifting posts. The focus motor is inside at an angle and engages the geared horizontal shaft. The side...

Thanks, I've looked - no manual focus - it's an odd one!

It also has two switch-feet on the bottom of the adjustable focus frame. They are wired back into the motor. I think they are some kind of...

I just took a look, my wheel-crank attaches to the shaft via a phillips screw, but it looks like there is a pin through the shaft that engages some part of the top of the wheel crank. Can you post...

Hmmm... I'll have to look more closely at the power supply. I'll post pics - thanks!

I have a motorized focus w/o any manual focus knob, and a manual-crank head elevation wheel.

As far as I...

I just got a Durst Color L184 too! My baseboard turns :p But in all seriousness, I'll look at the bolt on mine. I'm sure you can find it on McMaster Carr. Should be easy to fix.

FYI I was told DO...

Hi All, I recently got a Durst L184 with a CLS1840; my god what a beast... but, I digress.

I'm looking for help identifying this random assortment of negative carriers. Can you help?

Lower...

Thanks for the info... Sure, makes sense, but there is no manual focus knob! I have nothing to turn! Might not be an issue if my electrics work - I currently (HA!) don't have access to a 240V outlet....

Hi Gang, I am a new owner of a Durst 184 with CLS1840. Trying to put it all together, I think I'm missing parts. This site has been helpful, you may hear from me again ;)

As for the negative...

Thanks! I no longer have a darkroom, I should see if our local shop (Dodge Chrome, Wash DC) can develop X-ray film.

Ok, I can do that light test with the bellows too.

Hi All,

I have an 8x10 Deardorff and some used film backs. They are in pretty good shape as far as I can tell. The bellows also looks to be in decent shape. I sent my lens to get serviced and...
