Ok,
I am up and printing, plus my buddy who is a machinist came over and aligned the enlarger for me!!!
He is going to machine a few parts as a few were broke and I was not aware of it! But it is aligned and I am having a blast!!!!!
My printing stinks but I am rusty as heck...
Any hoot, I bought 50 sheet 11x14 and 100 sheets of Forte Polygrade VC FB paper but in a luster finish as I really do not like the glossy finish. But this is really a mat finish. It looks good but I am not too sure about it. Also it is a neutral tone and I really wanted a cool tone paper. How does this paper take to selenium toner to cool it down?
Also do you like this paper? Is this what most people use? I remember about 15 or so years ago their was a paper between the FB glossy and this stuff I just bought. Is all that is offered if the FB glossy and luster?
Once this paper is dry how does it look?
Well back into the darkroom. Had to take a break. Need to BURN and DODGE and BURN some more!!!
Man I love this stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
I dont have any tongs but who cares!! There is nothing like the smell of fixer on your hands! Oh how I missed it, I will order some in the next few days I am addicted!
