"absoloutely pants"

Do you mean "wrong trousers"? As in Nick Park?

My new case has arrived & I am thrilled with it.

It makes no sense to me that an all singing dancing, custom built, full tour spec case has cost LESS than a standard hardshell….?

Henny, actually I just banged out those photos quickly in my studio, photographic studio that is. Yes, it's what I do to earn my crust. The band is good for the soul, but not the bank account!

Bob,
Now that you have a flight worthy case for that beauty, you have no choice but to come to the RIC Confluence this May in Columbus, Ohio. You do need to test the case, after all!

Do you do any traditional black and white photography? I run a custom b&w lab www.labwork-bw.com. We do work internationally.

Just like my case Bob, made by A&S out of Ca, although mine is a blueboy version.

Thanks for the nice comments on the case, and photos.

Slightly off topic but the contents of the case were enjoying its 21st birthaday last night. She performed well on a large stage and an 18K PA rig. She sounded f***ing awsome, such power.... There were quite a few photos being taken. I will try & get hold of one to show my baby's birthday party!

Sounds like an occasion to lift some P's and Q's!

Hi Jeff, just checked out your web site. nice stuff. I'ts good to see wet film is still alive & kicking. I mostly use tranny, 120 & 5" x 4". In my dark room I've got a Devere 504 enlarger. recently a young photographic student was in my dark room and looking at the 504 said " is that an enlarger?" I said , surely you must use them at college, but I was wrong. It's all dig & Photoshop now..... It was a sad day when Ilford went bust! Keep up the good work. Bob
