Hello everyone,
I have access to take on a Devere 108s 10x10 enlarger in working condition and to ship it from another country to my studio. I realise its quite a beast, I have used it in the past.
I will only be paying for the shipping, but I have a few obstacles until I do;
- I am currently trying to avoid needing to physically going there to get it (unless I have no choice) as it is far away, but I can send a shipping company that will crate it and ship it directly to my studio.
- I don't have access to someone who could help me to take it apart - so potentially it will be one unit.
I was thinking of paying someone for a day / half a day - potentially someone who can read the instructions and take apart (not a professional darkroom technician as I dont know anyone there who can do it, just someone with good attitude for mechanics). I know it would be easy to get the working bench table off (4 screws?) and the head of the enlarger will slide off.
* What I really need to know is if the 2.5 meter column comes in one part or two?
* does anyone have a diagram / pdf the can send me for the assembly instructions? - also to be used for taking it apart.
OR -
Should I just send it as is without taking any of the parts off and hoe for the best? - That would be my preferred way - less hassle - but would that be ok? is there anything I need to know in particular except the fact that everything needs to be locked before laying it down horizontally for shipping?
Many thanks,
Matan
