Picked up an enlarger and had a question

[Dwig]

well nothing on the current board under the mount. Nothing seems to fit it either. Im guessing there are pieces missing that the guy never let go of or tossed. If I can figure anything out Ill let you guys know

... and so this episode of the Mystery of the Mad Machinist concludes ...

Could it be an extension to the column by placing it between the column base and the baseboard?

that's what we were thinking but the baseboard has no evidence of that. Its possible the baseboard was swapped or the PO had it mounted to a custom table or counter.

Im afraid so.

Maybe ill drill it out and make it a lamp! 😀

Has anyone ever repaired the on/off switch on these? It clicks on just fine every time but it doesn't always switch off on the first click. Sometimes it takes a good 15 seconds of clicking for it to go off.
