I'm planning to make a very simple LF enlarger. I've got a good modern lens but had been looking for a Kodak Ektanon, and noticed one on ebay with some other bits and pieces.
I got lucky, not only is the 7.5" Ektanon in reasonable condition (and with a remarkable number of aperture blades) but there is a considerable weight of other useful stuff that will make a very good starting point.
Can anyone indentify what enlarger this might have come from? The big lens mount boxes are between 7.25" and 7.5" square where they would fit onto the enlarger.
The film holders are quite distinctive. The thicker pieces have a wide, shallow rebate on two edges. The thinner pieces locate onto stout pins on the thicker pieces, and the film would be sandwiched between two pieces of glass.
Is the thin rectangular frame (on the right) part of the same kit? (I somehow doubt it).
Along with the Ektanon there was a tiny 5cm f3.5 Ross Resolux, absolutely filthy.
Many thanks for any help you can give.
