Absolutely agree. Also apart from all you mentioned, I won't worry about the metal part rusting, and/or the metal part affecting or contaminating my coating (if that even happens).

Sorry for 'hijacking' the thread, mind sharing how this setup looks like?
I shoot 14x17 negatives and I develop using Pyrocat HD, really like the clean results.
Currently shifted and testing our Pyro 510 for a simplified process, longer keep times for chemistry, and...
They offered a refund for the problematic pack. The other packs I got from them were actually okay. It's one pack, that I guess didn't pass QC.

They have reached out to me via Photrio. I will see what they have to offer to resolve.

Thanks. This sounds reasonable. My theory is that the negatives I had were notched incorrectly (as not all had notches) in turn causing me to have the wrong side up.
Will try and test your...
Same day. I process via drum, one sheet at a time.

The ones that I loaded had notches and were loaded correctly. I used a barrel lens for this one and a cap for a shutter, alternately a Packard shutter as well.
Someone took videos of the whole...
I'm assuming the lack of notches on the film might ba QA issue from the manufacturer, for all I know all the shots I made were the other way around ie, the notches were misplaced given most of the...
All the Ilford sheets I shot during the shoot turned out fine.

Hi folks,

Hello,
I am currently shooting with a 14x17 Wisner on a Ries tripod. Quite often I use the same camera for still life images indoors.
I was wondering what dollies are out there that can carry...

Thank you! That is flattering though I am not doing it for business. Bellieve it or not this was just my first time restoring.

Reviving this thread.
I picked up several referrals to mcmaster—so the feeler gauges work well and would last as spring backs?
Or are there other options at McMaster that would work as well or...
Thanks! Will give this a think.

Thanks Richard, appreciate it.
I was thinking the replating caused the threads to tighten up.

Hello,
Is there any resources online with regards to the lens coverage of the Docter 240mm Apo-Germinar W? I did a lens test on my Wisner 11x14 Technical Field and noticed sharp cuts on my edges....

Nuts-wise you are referring to those that can be tightened using a hex key?
