Why don't you all just send them to me? I arrange for a proper burial. Actually, I love Focomats. They are a joy to use. And yes, they are sturdy, and appropriately sized for the task at hand. In our company darkroom we have a Focomat 1c and an Omege D2v. Using the D2 after using the Focomat is like driving a truck after tooling around in a sports coupe. Like I say, send me those Focomats.
