Meopta Magnifax 4/4a lens board for 50mm lens
Description
I acquired a Meopta Magnifax enlarger with a number of lens boards from the smaller Opemus/Axomat models. Frequently these are sold as compatible with the Magnifax, but with a 50mm lens getting it to focus can be very marginal, if impossible. The lens needs to be brought closer to the negative carrier. This printable lens plate fixes the problem. It's remixed ioma8maker8's Sony e-mount lens-cap to provide a bayonet mount, into which you can fit a cheap e-mount to M39 thread converter (printing an M39 thread is not going to be very accurate). The lens will be fairly recessed, and you probably won't be able to see the aperture markings, but I believe most people just count the clicks. I include the openscad source so you can fiddle with it to suit your purposes. It's sort of semi-parametric and a bit bodged, so you might well need to do a bit more bodging to get it to work for whatever e-mount adaptor you've got. So long as the overall diameter is less than 60mm you should be fine.
