WTB: Wild stereo incident lamp attachment parts

[Rorschach]

Hi,

I am looking for the jointed, clampable rod system/part and also for the cast, circular base that are in the attached picture.

Also interested in filters and filter holders etc. that are part of the system for the 6V 20W focusable incident lamp.

I have two new & unused units but just one attachment rod system.

Those parts are currently available from your Local Leica dealer or Leica directly.

That's good to know. I'll contact them if nothing turns up here and elsewhere.

I found Leica surprisingly pleasant to deal with. I had assumed that they would be less than excited to sell parts to a small timer with little potential for bigger purchases in the future, but they were quite nice and helpful.
That said, Leica pricing...they gave me the wrong part number for one component and I ended up accidentally buying a 300ish dollar serial cable. I got my money back but some of their pricing can be nuts.

Yes, their pricing sometimes isn't at all realistic. I can accept a high price on top level optics and complicated assemblies requiring the finest mechanisms. However, for example a simple piece of metal, even if made to tight tolerances, sometimes carries an astronomical price. I bet they'd get much better sales by lowering those types of prices somewhat. It's mostly old stock after all, so the expenses caused by making them occurred decades ago. Profits, however, can only be had if those parts move off the shelves they have been sitting on for those decades.
