Few actually want a 10X10

Those that do are preserving them for wiser young people

I easily remember the 10X10 purges that occured on a massive scale for the last 2 decades

they look like my drill press! those are great well built enlargers. shame not many appreciate quality anymore in our disposable society. i love stuff like that, i just dont have the space for it n if i did... my house would be a museum.

i see your wood working machines are getting squeezed out...

Nice find. Those are getting very scarce. I have not seen an 8x10 durst on ebay or craigslist for a while.

Found these on Facebook marketplace. Wish one of them had the vacuum baseboard like my old L184.

About 600 miles round trip. It’s about my max to get stuff, same day turn around.

I built one from the best parts of two. One was local and the other was almost exactly 600 mi round trip.
