I rescued a Beseler 23cII this morning. I really am going to have to start printing now.

There is an EL-Nikkor on it. I have a few of those too.

I've got ya beat so far.. :D :D I have 4 including the Beseler 23C III XL I picked up last week..
 
That is a lot of space Frank. I need to bring my new one in still to give it a good cleaning.
 
Only 2 are set up.

There are 10. I counted. (some in the basement, some in the garage)

Now I thought I was horder. I have 6 (seven counting a very old and tiny Durst I bought in an antique store). Three of them are used semi frequently but I can only set up one at a time. The Focomat 1C is my fav, but alas no filter drawer and its only 35mm. The Durst M601 is set up most of the time and then the monster Omega D2V for the infrequent 4x5 stuff. I can't turn them down if they come my way. I keep on thinking I might be able to turn some neighbor on to darkroom work. No takers yet.
 
I am thinking of grabbing my supplies and messing up my bathroom for a little while. It would be nice to have a nice space somewhere to set up a permanent darkroom.

Most people I know think that owning a multitude of old film cameras is loony, but several enlargers? Its a definite illness.

Correct... After having two, we are trying to figure out our positions on a scala ranging from insanity upto lunacy.:p

(Up to two, it's beneath of academic interest...)
 
Frank: I only have one. Regarding 10, Sheryl asks "Why?" Please provide a good answer, as I want more than one.
