Whether you're making cyanotypes, sun prints, or other alternative processes that use a contact printing frame, the 20 x 24" Photographers Formulary Contact Print Frame 20x24from Photographers Formulary Contact Print Frame 20x24is an ideal choice to make your personalized work. The frame is made of a solid 2" ash wood with a felt-lined 1/2" plywood that is hinged, so it can be easily removed from the frame. By placing the material against the museum-grade glass, positioning the felt-lined backing, and closing it with the swing arm locking mechanism, it keeps the print completely flat for exposure to light. To ensure complete exposure of the material, the glass is one inch larger all around than the print.

[22 lb] Really sturdy and much thicker than I originally anticipated--it's a good thing for my uses, but if you have a low clearance under a UV box, you might want to measure it first before ordering. Obviously well made, and pleasant to use. 5

[22 lb] I've been very happy with Photographer's Formulary Select Contact frames. They're very well built, and quite affordable. 5

[22 lb] I haven't used this contact printing frame yet, but it's a low tech item and should work just fine. The frame itself is sturdy and nicely built; Photographer's Formulary is a no-nonsense, capable outfit. No reason it shouldn't perform well and last many years. My only caveat with this type of printer is Newton rings. This happens when the glass from the frame and the negative are in direct contact. The frame assures the negative will have firm contact with the printing paper, a must for contact prints. As long as the glass pane of the frame doesn't make Newtonian contact with the negative, it should work out OK. Time will tell. 5

[22 lb] excellent quality. i think this will last multiple generations, something i can hand down to my grandchildren 5

[22 lb] The contact frame is very solid. I am really enjoying making cyanotypes and this sure beats using an old picture frame and clips. Glad I decided to spend the money to upgrade. Well worth it if you're going to do alternative printing. 5

[22 lb] I needed a larger printing frame quickly, for a Cyanotype project, and was happy to find this affordably priced one. The frame arrived the day after I ordered it online and I started using it the same day. The one I received is sturdily built. The glass is as I expected it to be, clear: not frosted. The exposure times are comparable to exposures made through a piece of low iron glass I have in a smaller frame. The rubber feet are a nice touch, they make it easier to get your fingers under the frame to pick it up. 5
