Darkroom update 1

Two weeks and two projects finished. First, a sink has been installed and plumbing is completed. On the right is a print washer-for the final wash, next over is a first print washer-sitting on top of the edge of the sink. There is a water temperature is control -on the wall centered above the sink. On the left side -small black rectangle- is a print time and temperature control unit. Storage is on the shelves below the sink.
Secondly, after some ten days-the room can now be made light proof. This required that the entire basement be made light proof. Not an easy task but now done. The timers, print washers, temperature control unit,trays, and other miscellaneous equipment-while not in use for some ten years-all work with no problems. The wet side of the darkroom is now complete. The next bit of work will be getting the dry side setup and working. Check back for an update. (click on image to enlarge)
