I have a line on some equip from a closing community darkroom/studio.
Beseler 45M
3 Lenses
3 neg cariers
Various tongs, beakers, graduates, etc
grain scope
3 sets of trays
Who knows, maybe some stuff that is not in the pics (attached).
What do you think?

It seems you have everything you need to start printing.
Do you also have film developing tanks and reels?

Yes, I have a tank and some reels.
Do not have the space for any setup right now. I am in the process of trying to sell the house. Whatever place we get will have a perm setup. When I get the stuff, I will just have to put it int storage now. Just been keeping my eye open for a good deal.

You'll probably want to get a set of VC filters.

That is a good enlarger. It's a condenser enlarger, so do a little digging in the archives to read the opinions on condenser vs diffusion.
I started with that exact enlarger. It's capable of most anything you can put to it. It also converts to horizontal in mere moments.

Hi, looks like a nice enlarger, but the Beslar lens is of low quality and the Omegar is moderate quality. You may want to upgrade on the lenses.

Well, today I picked up all the equip listed and some extra. I am very pleased an have darn near everything I need to start printing again. I am only missing one little thing, the ... uh ... darkroom.
House is for sale, we are looking at houses. I will find a place and start on my building. One good thing to note, a friend of mine, who I am certain would want to use my future facilites has offered to help me build it.
Well, need get the equip cleaned and packed up and put into storage.
