I have made carriers from matte board for many old enlargers
for odd formats so that might be a place to start if you are
just itching to make a print. It's also possible that
another enlarger would have a carrier so similar that the
substitute might work without any filing or ba****ng. More
common 35mm only enlargers would be the Bogen line and the
smaller Omegas (Some Bogen carriers are a simple 2-part
hinged design some are a more complicated hinged affair).
Don't know where you are located but hope this is a start
for you.
