Digital BW, The Print

Sorry for the cross post, I have a friend who has
switched to digital and he now wants to sell his
darkroom equipment, all of it.
Please contact him for questions - He is located in
The Dalles, Oregon.

I had the same enlarger and a much more extensive setup (tem control, lots of lenses, etc.).  A year ago, in a fairly large city, I couldn't find a buyer for it at any price.  I donated the whoe works to the local high school.  They were still teaching photography the old fashioned way, thank goodness.

Similar experience here this past spring.  I managed to sell the lenses, 
lensboards and negative carriers on Ebay.  But the rest of the stuff went 
to my kids' high school (which was delighted to receive it) except for the 
1940s era GraLab timer that was my father's.  Couldn't give away the 45MCRX 
chassis, though - I may end up cutting it up with a torch and throwing it 
out piecemeal in the garbage just to get it out of my way.  (I've already 
called the local colleges and they don't want it either.)

Cheers,
Kip

You would think there might be a market out there if someone would come 
out with an affordable color/bw enlarger head that accepts digital 
files and we can all get back into the darkrooms for a while. I know 
the DeVere 504 exists but at $30,000. Something that would fit on an 
old Omega or Besseler chassis. Come on, anyone! I'd pay at least $1000 
for one just to smell fixer again.

Why not make digital inkjet negatives using Dan Burkholder's methods 
and do contact prints. That's what I'm planning on doing when I need 
a "glossy dried matte silver fix" as well as non-silver processes.
