Any things to go for or avoid?

I full admit that whilst I do process B&W
35mm I scan most of it and the Patterson 35mm enlarger hardly ever comes
out the box. However the economic of MF scanners makes me think that
traditional methods are probally the best bet.

Take a look at the Kaiser enlargers.

Only in the USA. Not in Europe. So he should still take a good look at
the most versatile MF enlarger on the market.

I've got a Durst 601 that is going really cheap.
I presume from your .co.uk address you are in the UK?
I'm in Leicester, looking for £25 + delivery.50mm lens included, you may
want a longer lens for regular 6x6 printing, I've used it for 6x4.5 and
the 50mm lens doesnt cause a problem for me.Adjustable neg carrier, so it
can be used for all formats up to 6x6.
The only problem is the baseboard got wet on one edge, so the laminate has
lifted up around 2mm, for 1.5" on the forward edge.This doesnt cause a
problem for prints up to around 12x10", over that size, then the easel
will be lifted up on the forward edge slightly.I've never tried to repair
it as I never do over 10x8 prints anyway. If you are interested, then
email me.

Just curious:
Is there an enlarger as ubiquitous as the Omega "D" series, is in the US, in Europe?
Thanks, John
