Video Description

After I made the slide projector enlarger I was wanting to try the same principle on an enlarger and finally had the opportunity to find one at a antique store. I have managed to make quite impressively detailed cyanotypes Vandyke's and now carbon prints from 4x5 negatives on it. Here is a list of components I used to make the UV light source. The 35mm projector project will work for carbon printing as well it is just limited in detail so use a fine grain high contrast 35mm film for similar results.
