Does anyone have a dark room and enlarger? I am looking for someone to make me a print from an old B&W 2½" square negative (120?)

Better late than never!!!!

Glad Compo got sorted, nice to know there are good folks here that will help others if they can.

Like piggy and babs I too have a scanner, Plustek Optic 7300, bought it in 2008 and use it regularly.

Never really been a photographic buff but when I did use a camera I wanted to do it myself so I bought all the kit and developed, enlarged, printed all my films and slides (still have it all), buying B/W and slide film in bulk. Results? Sometimes good, sometimes bad and sometimes indifferent but the fun of doing it was the thing.

I even had a cine-camera in the 1960s (super 8) and yes the hoarder that I am still have a projector.

Like to finish by saying I too will be willing to help if I can when needed by members.

Although aging a bit now, I use an Epson photo scanner that will do several sizes of negatives plus 35mm slides, I bought it when I tried to start a digital photo repair business....

Todays scanners have higher resolution and use LED backlighting as against cold cathode tubes, so purer white light, plus they are a lot cheaper than what I paid for mine several years back.

They do a good job! I've tried odd sized negatives with limited success.
