He Frank. 'Have no prior contact w/ you other than the last week's forum posts - but your attitude comes through in a good way. 'Hope the recoup continues very well & you're slopping chemicals & posting images soon.
 
I can understand the surgery, but what were you thinking when you cleaned up the darkroom?!?
 
Needed clear horizontal surfaces, and a new shelf unit. It had become unworkable. But it still has that crazy cozy clutter feel, don't you think?
 
Yes

That's what's great about it.
 
Thanks. I see pics of different darkrooms and some are clinically clean and cold. Just a different style. There have been studies that correlate a cluttered work space to creativity. I need all the help I can get, so...

I used to work with a guy who once said to me, "A tidy desk is the sign of a sick mind." But I can't help it; I have CDO (which is like OCD except it's in alphabetical order as it should be).

I love those sayings!
 
That's a great looking space.

Looks like you could enjoy many happy hours there...

Good luck with your recovery!

i can dig it -- I just did a show and had to figure out how to store the resulting framed prints, which meant finding room in my darkroom, which meant a new shelf unit in the closet, which meant TAKING DAMN NEAR EVERYTHING OUT OF THE DARKROOM.

Lotsa stuff, and not done yet.
 
My house is very small. I admire you guys who have a proper room to work. I do it in a toilet. No chance getting untidy. Have to clear out everything once finish.

Find any treasures? I always find something I forgot I had or assumed I lost when I organize a hobby space. Usually a few weeks after I bought that same item.

Today I received the Stoffer's Step Wedge to replace the found one that I could not find.
