MOD54 Drying Hangers

[JWMster]

Anyone have experience with these? Thought of a drying closet, but think I saw somewhere someone using the Hangers + a shower curtain or some such to make a good dust controlled drying zone. Suggestions?

I have two sets. Use it for prints.

For negatives I use only the clips on a string above the bath tub. Another clip at the bottom of the film strip.

One day I'll drill into the concrete ceiling to put in a hook, so I can use the frame and loose the string.

I need no dust control, even though we have a fair amount of dust. But there is no air draft. Just use photoflow and the film is dry after two hours. Virtually dust free.

I digicam scan and need not much shooting, mostly none. But I blow off any left dust from film before scanning or printing. Mostly works.

I use something similar but not as nice and of lower quality. It works without issue so I'm sure the Mod-54 product will be very nice to use. I still hang it in the shower though.

Ah... I had a perfect basement shower in the old house in the basement bath where I did my processing. Trying to work out something in the new abode and I'm without the same options. Looking at a drying space and modifying a zip up shoe rack for the purpose (See below):

These are cloth racks and the unit goes for $9, I'm thinking to cut out the cloth racks in the middle shelves and hang the film from top using one of these MOD54 things somehow (TBD). Hang the film, lower the front and let it dry. Professional drying racks? Even used (if you can find them) run a pretty penny.

I just bought some of these and they are really well build. I think that a bathroom will works just fine. Specially after all the steam of a recent shower is gone. This will clear all the small particles in the air.
