Most affordable copy stand with geared height adjustment? (Rack and pinion?)

[Leszek Vogt]

I've used this gismo: https://www.amazon.com/Befenybay-Alu...07WCXB289&th=1
It allows for very precise vertical movement & adjustment. On my unit there was no slop that I could detect. I use larger Kaiser Slimlite, since I also have several 5x7 negs to view - nice unit. Oh, and the lens has to be aligned properly to the light table....it takes some tweaking.

It's getting harder and harder to find enlargers, many are already in the landfill.
