Be aware that there are two versions of this enlarger, and the best way to tell them apart is by the number of vertical posts that support the lens stage. If one post, then you have the Type I enlarger. If two posts, then you have the larger, Type II enlarger.
If you're shopping for parts, you don't want to purchase negative carriers for the wrong version. To give you an idea, the long dimension of negative carriers for the Type II, Zone VI enlarger is 15 3/4 inches.
Don't lose track of, or sell the extension, unless you don't need it. It's extremely rare. I doubt that you would ever find another.
