Have the monitors make it a sticky.

I assume you mean "moderators" :smile:

I think "monitors" may refer to a science fiction story.

In any event, Articles aren't capable of being made "Sticky" here on APUG.

On the up side, their placement isn't determined merely by how recent they are.

You are correct. I washed my hands today and I cannot do nothing with them. :laugh:

2-bath fixing is both better and cheaper, and actually seems faster. I shoot a lot of TMAX and wouldn't do it any other way.

Also I think I should use Kodak fixer for Kodak films. Thank you again!

Most folks have noted that the T-max films do require EXTRA fixing, so you should stick to a "rapid" fixer, and of all the commonly available fixers today only "Kodak Fixer" (the powdered stuff) is NOT a rapid fixer.

Rapid fixers are generally provided as a liquid concentrate. Kodak does sell Kodak RAPID fixer, but It is packed with a hardener which is generally not used, and which makes the package require "special" shipping.

Ilford Rapid fixer is apparently suitable to travel by mail, so it may be easier to come by. It happens to be the one that I can get at my local Henry's store if I request it a week in advance. (they only stock it in Toronto it seems)
