Large Format Photography Australia

I saw this on Gumtree today: https://www.gumtree.com.au/web/listing/ ... 1336263606

(I don't know the seller, and I'd posit that this elarger needs a reasonable amount of TLC)

Working with 11x14 would be awesome, but (presumably) hugely impractical and expensive.

I must admit that my 8x10 Kodak 2D gets very little use nowadays, 4x5 is much more practical.

(I'll list this here first, if I don't get any interest I'll re-list on Photrio later on) I bought this about about 5 years ago with plans to restore it so I could print from 5x7 negatives, but I’ve since realised I’ve got too many “projects”, so this needs to go.

Thank you steve

However, I need to trim some expenses, so I’ve decided I won’t renew hosting for this forum when it is due in September this year. If someone would like to take it over I’m...

Sorry, I was a bit slow this time to nuke the spam. I'll leave Maris's reply intact however because it amuses me.
