Bit OT, but speaking of Enlargers, I moved from a house with high
ceilings into a tiny Victorian cottage and in my infinite wisdom ;) I
decided to take my DeVere 504 floorstander with me. LOL

It took me an entire day to navigate it up the steps, I had to dismantle
it into three pieces then get it up the steps into this tiny 2nd
bedroom. Unfortunately the column is so high when I tried to lift it up
to attach to the base the top of the column touches the ceiling (!)

Good job I happen to have a loft in that room and the column sits square
in the middle of it. I now have to squeeze past the baseboard to get in
front of the enlarger to use it.

Are there any awards for masochistic enlarger installations - ? ;) 

I was going to go digital (again).. naaaaa.. :))
