I'm the last holdout West River that still processes film and prints in the traditional manner. Most work now by hand and using a DoMac 18" paper processor. The d-Lab 2 is in hibernation, just put a new laser in it too. Got plenty of film and paper stock, used cameras and lenses. I started in 1977 with a 120 or 620 brownie box camera, had lots of fun but film processing got expensive. Back in Massachusetts, my dad and I bult a darkroom in a corner of the cellar and found little time for anything else. Got into camera repairing in the early "80s. Had a good run untill everything got all plastic and disposable. Shot lots of film just to be in my own little world printing. 16 years now in SD. I've got a nice motorcycle shop here in town and 2/3ds of my home is darkroom and getting back into camera repairs. I still have my 30 year old email address and check once a day. For those that dont like Juno email too bad, aint changin it. For the others that think one needs 10,000 posts to be credible, too bad. I was here as an Apug member years ago for years and only managed a few hunderd posts. Anywho..... Here I Is, glad to be back and let's hope this crazy polarized world can blend and get together like the TV commercials show.
