I would pay shipping both ways, a 6 pack of your favorite brew, and a deposit. - -----Original Message----- From: Stephen Alred [mailto:salred@toad.net] Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2000 6:38 PM To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: [Leica] [Off Topic] Washington, DC, LUGgers / Enlarger Alignment OK, now that it's just us... Earlier this year I splurged on a Versalab "Parallel" laser enlarger alignment tool -- the 11 x 14's on my ancient B-22 (Zone VI cold light head, just to regain some small respect) were becoming a real pain in the patoot because I had to close down to f/16 to get the image in focus across the easel. So now it's aligned, or as close as I can do it with paper shims all over: the B-22 was not made to be aligned to this degree of accuracy! My 11 x 14s now look good at f/5.6. Anyway, there this thing sits, so, I'm wondering if there's anyone out there within driving distance of Upper Marlboro, MD, who'd like to "lease" it to align their own enlarger. I figure on these ground rules: 1) You gotta come to my place to pick it up and return it; 2) The "lease" price will be one six pack of a good micro-brew lager or pilsner. 3) The "lease" term will be two weeks, max. 4) You agree not to put anyone's eye out playing "sniper" with the laser beam. So, any interest? Any counter-proposals? << Please reply to my private email: salred@toad.net >> Steve Alred Croom, Maryland
