<< I am thinking about getting the Aristo VC head for my Beseler 45MX, but
 since I do most of my 35mm work on my Focomat Ic, I would like to be able
 to put the Aristo head on the Focomat as well. Has anyone tried this, or
 know if this is possible? I have contacted Arrest, but they don't know. Any
 help would be appreciated.
 
 TIA

Suggest that the upper section of the lamphouse be removed, measure the 
inside diameter of the lower section and then consult the Aristo web page to 
see if any off-the-shelf units will fit snugly.  If there is not a good fit, 
just check with Aristo to see if a special might be fabricated.  If that is 
not possible you might use tape to be sure light does not spill around the 
Aristo unit and the lamphouse.
