Or, of course, using the Linhof enlarger back on the camera itself. I have one somewhere...
The Kardan Color isn't my favourite Linhof -- that would be either a 4x5 inch Technikardan or a 13x18cm Super Technika -- but it's an extremely capable camera (I've had two, bought cheap and sold dear), and at that price, with those lenses, WOW. And I fully take the OP's point about recycling.
Cheers,
R.

Great purchase my friend. If it were me, i would leave the monorail behind in the studio and use those lenses on a Wista field, chamonix or something equally small field camera.
Super Angulon will make an amazing fixed focus 4x5 Point and shoot!

Hi Martin Actually we installed a second enlarger (Durst M800) I don't know if we arrange some space for a third enlarger. Anyway I am starting to look a 4x5 enlarger 🙂.
For shutter tester, I am also planning to make one. I will buy the materials for it tomorrow. Your link is very great for me. Thanks.
Hi Richard. I am also very eager for printing. I am planning to make contact prints with them. Before all of them I have to buy some film. I asked some dealers but I couldn't find 9x12 film. Probably I will order from macodirect.de next week. Do you want anything?
Looking forward you Jan. We will look around. Generally I can find a good item one in a year.
Thanks Deniz. Actually that is good idea. I will try my chance 🙂)

Hi Taylan,
Enjoy your new toys. I believe you bought them from the place that you told me last week. I should pay a visit there asap 🙂
By the way, after I talked to you, I went to Hayyam Pasaj and Aras Foto to find a bargain M, but all I was asked 1200$ for an M2 which needs some repair Only body of course). After that I searched ebay and found an user condition M2 on an auction. I think I was lucky enough to close the deal for 470$ + 40$ shipment. Item has been shipped and I am waiting for it 🙂 I will try it with a J8 for the beginning and if it is OK I may need your help to find a bargain Leica glass too.
There is also one thing I need to ask you. Last week I got my father's very first camera (which was also my first camera back in 87) from the closet, an Adox Sport folding MF camera. I gave it a try with a roll of TMax 100 and very surprized about the results. Because the all aperture settings were fine and shutter speeds were OK except 1 sec. (which is no problem for me). Only one time I had a problem with 1/200 but never happened again. Since I had no mask for the camera, I took all pictures as 6x9 format. Self developed the film, scanned with Canoscan 8800F. Almost 45 mp pictures for 2400 dpi with an incredible dynamic range.
Anyway, I decided to use the camera more often but I need to get it CLA'd first. It needs some deep cleaning (bellows look OK though) and adjustment for the shutter. Do you know anybody here who is really capable of handling this old mechanics (from 1950 I believe)? If you do, it would be great.
I am planning to visit your darkroom within a few weeks. But only for weekends since the place is very far to the place that I work.
Hope to see you soon.
Greetings.
