So I’m seeing different options from Omega, Beseler, and Durst. I currently shoot 35mm and 6x6; I don’t have a 4x5 camera yet.
Some are parts of big darkroom sell-offs that seem well/tested; others are more like “I don’t know how to test it but it lights up” or “the bulb is out but the motors work so that’s pretty cool”.
I am going to try and make my downstairs bathroom into my darkroom eventually. The darkroom tent is a stopgap that I found new and cheap locally. I develop film in the kitchen right now. That bathroom is shared with the cats so I need to include a plan to get their litter boxes out of there which is going to require some other logistics, including maybe moving the cats into my home office. Or maybe do some plumbing into the home office to make it a darkroom. I have drop ceilings all through the bottom floor so I’ll need to find a way to block light from the upstairs level as well as the normal sources.
