Hi From Oakland, Ca.

[1930artdeco]

Hello,

I just found this site from the Fedora Lounge and it is exactly what I am looking for. I usually shoot either a P-5 Pentax 35mm or 4x5 Graflex. I just built a garage that I am going to turn into a darkroom eventually. So I will be asking lots and lots of dumb questions as I have not been in a Darkroom for years.

I just can't wait to get going again especially at night in San Francisco with the trolly cars!

Hi Mike - welcome to APUG. There are quite a few threads here about people building their own darkrooms, so there is already a lot of information that should help you. But feel free to ask -- people are quite helpful here!

Hi Mike--
Welcome to APUG. If you find yourself in San Francisco, stop by my little shop...I have flyers/class listings/etc. for a bunch of the local rental darkrooms, etc. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Glass-Key-Photo/119199231470385
If you like night photography, check out the Nocturnes (assuming you haven't that is...) they do all kinds of night photography. Great stuff!

Welcome! In case you need darkroom stuff, I have a 6 ft. plastic sink for cheap and other stuff.
