Nuarc exposure unit modification
Posted: Tue Dec 15, 2009 11:09 am
I recently received an almost free Nuarc flip-top plate burner. I wold like to modify it to work as a screen exposure unit. Please look at my plans, and tell me what you think.
The plate burner comes with a rubber bladder that works with a vacuum pump. I would be removing this, and replacing it with a similar, but more stretchy neoprene blanket. The blanket would be hooked up to the vacuum like the original setup. Unfortunately, the flip top does not have enough space for my roller frames. I am planning to cut a larger hole in the metal under the rubber bladder so that the neoprene blanket can stretch to accommodate my screens.
