Oh...It doesn't focus as newer enlargers do, it doesn't have a focus
knob. It has the lens mounted into a threaded brass tube that one
manually turns to decrease or increase distance, so I have to be able
to reach it.
I did receive information... that B&H sells a

This sounds like the closest solution so far.
Thank you to everyone for your ideas!
