8X10 Omega 12X12" SUPER CHROMEGA F DICHROIC II COLOR HEAD, blower, power supply, 170cc cyan, magenta and yellow filtration, white light lever, 12X12" diffusion outlet, 1000W, Ex+, $2500. I haven't yet detailed this. I need to check the sockets and the lining of the mixing box and basic operation. Because I have 3 of the heads, and 2 power supplies, i should be able to put one good one together without difficulty, however, I am willing to sell it as is, your choice, $1000.
For information about printing B&W using a color head check out my web page on Variable Contrast Printing using a color head.
8X10 Omega 12X12" SUPER CHROMEGA F DICHROIC COLOR HEAD, blower, 170cc cyan, magenta and yellow filtration, white light lever, 12X12" diffusion outlet, adapted to 120V AC, new bulbs, new bulb sockets, new styrofoam lining in mixing box, 1200W, Ex, $2000, 2 available.

Note: I can rebuild your head and convert it to AC power. Relining of mixing box, $175. Conversion to AC, including new sockets and bulbs and power cord, $700. Newly manufactured variable density diffusion outlet sheet (doesn't quite make it to the corners because I only have a 16" lathe, but because the diffusion outlet sheet is 12X12", it isn't necessary), $300. I have new squirrel cage fans available for $50 each.
Accessories for 8X10 Saltzman:
The Chromega F heads listed above will fit the Saltzman with little or no adaptation. The Aristo W1212 fits the Saltzman without adaptation. Because the enlarger is so robustly built and because it has such a large top plate, virtually any head may be adapted to the Saltzman. This enlarger has been sold. I leave it up just so you can see what one looks like.
Carlwen rollfilm carrier base and carriers for Saltzman available
Flat lensboards, with 1" pilot hole, Mint-, $75
5" recessed or extension Caesar Saltzman lenscone, Ex+, $250. Lenscone has a 77mm hole + 4 screwholes where a Caesar Saltzman universal diaphragm lensholder was attached.
rare 12" extension lenscone, can be used for reductions or the enlarger may be used as a very stable macro or copy camera, this also has the lensboard attachment hardware as is found on the enlarger, Ex+, $300
300MM F5.6 COMPONON, coated, Ex, $300. Add $80 for lens neatly mounted on 8X10 Saltzman lensboard, or buy lensboard by itself for $100. Other lenses available. This one just happens to be on a Saltzman lensboard. 300mm Rodagon also fits this lensboard.
Accessories for 5X7 Saltzman:
The 5X7 Saltzman enlarger is rare. I had one; it was sold to someone in Colorado. We had fun carrying it down 4 flights of stairs. As far as I know, it may have been a one-of-a-kind item because I have never seen another. It is rare enough and attractive enough to belong in a museum.
Saltzman 5X7 glassless stretching type carrier, adjustable down to 35mm film, each of the 3 little lever handles you see activates spring systems that clamp the film and pull it taught, one of 14 spring clips that hold the film is missing, RARE, $200
Saltzman 5X7 lensboard with 58mm capacity Caesar Saltzman universal diaphragm lensholder neatly attached, $OLD, but the lensboard is available by itself, 77mm hole + 4 screwholes where the universal diaphragm lensholder was attached, $75.
Saltzman 5X7 lensboard with 1" pilot hole, Mint-, $75
Saltzman top cap, Aluminum hemisphere to fit over the top of (I am guessing) either a lightstand or a 5X7 Saltzman enlarger, about 5" diameter, will trade for about 8" diameter Saltzman top cap (for camera stand or 8X10 enlarger), or $25
Miscellaneous 8X10 and 11X14 enlarger parts and accessories:
Easel from Fotar 11X14 enlarger. Looks like and is constructed like the easel on the 8X10 enlarger. Black formica covered. 42X62X" in size; it is thick too @ 1 5/8". You do not have to use it for an enlarger easel. It could be used for any purpose where you need a flat stable Formica covered substantial surface. $200
Negative stage and bellows from Fotar 11X14 enlarger. Bellows are light tight and in good condition. Negative stage has a hinged door to keep light contained and dust out. Set up to accept a pin registered carrier. No negative carrier included. Flat top and grooved side makes for easy alignment and for easy installation on your existing enlarger. Originally, this was bolted to the Fotar enlarger chassis with just 2 massive 3/4" bolts as seen in the last photograph; these bolts are included. Converting a substantially built 8X10 to 11X14 would be the easyist way to go. The 8X10 Calumet enlargers listed above would be an excellent choice. An 8X10 Saltzman would be another good choice. $400
8x10 Omega F parts: color heads listed above and on Omega list, negative carrier on Omega list
PARTS FOR BESELER 8X10 COLDLIGHT HEAD
I sold the 8X10 head to someone who was going to install it on an 8X10 enlarger of another manufacture. I have these parts remaining. The square is about 12" on a side. The L-bracket is about 10" on a side. You may have either part for $15 or both parts for $20.
