I'll keep my eye on this. Thanks for posting!

2 litres of solution... that's a lot considering I use only 500ml for 2 (BTZS tube). For me though, it would make a great tank for stand/semi-stand development in very dilute Pyrocat-HD.

One drawback of this film holder design: it requires two molds (twice the money) and some assembly.
Frankly, hadn't thought about trying it for the SP-445; maybe if we can squeeze 4 sheets into the tank people will go for it.

As a sp445 owner I'd like to see this "clamshell" type of holder also offered for the 4x5 tank to turn it into a sp245. Often I'm only doing two sheets and this holder design looks better. I like that it doesn't require any sliding action to load/unload the film.

Two sheets at a time will be an issue I think. Tray is pretty easy with 4-5 sheets at a time and around 3 liters of developer. I love the 445 btw.
