Hi Sandy,
I can envision what you are trying to do, I think though it would be easier
and cheaper to make a cart that rolls on casters or buy one and either slide
the vacuum frame under the lights or slide the lights over the vacuum
frame... probably whichever is lighter.... Or, put the lights on a set of
hinges and just lift them up with a pulley type arrangement...they could then
"rest" verically against a wall out of the way.
OR, just ignore everything I have said! hehehehe

<< I just acquired a large NuArc Vacuum Frame, 44X36", which I plan to
use with my bank of 48" fluorescent tubes. Both the frame and the UV
bank are fairly heavy (the vacuum frame weighs something on the order
of 150 lbs), and the only practical way I envision using the two
together is by constructing some type of sliding shelf which will
allow me to move the vacuum frame under the UV bank for exposure, and
then pull it out again for loading the film and paper.
I have a number of ideas as to how I could make this work but just
wonder if anyone on the list is using a similar set-up, and if so, if
they might share details, perhaps with actual images, with me as to
the type of hardware used to make the sliding platform.
