Thank you,But I've given up stainless reels.35mm I could do,but 120 forget it!I just think stainless reels are a bad recommendation for B&W beginners.This art form is dying.Kodak's out of the paper business,AGFA is gone,Forte,Ilford's been thru bankruptcy etc.We need to keep it easy so new people don't give up.We need as many people buying film & paper as possible or it wont be there for us.Some think newbies need to pay their dues.We can't afford that now.Recommend Kodacraft aprons or plastic.

I just rented Roberta's darkroom today; she spent half the day showing me the ropes, efficiently & intelligently. I'm coming back.

It's nice to see other photographers still working in a wet darkroom. I have a Beseler 45VXL and an Omega D2 (wall mounted) and find that you can lose alignment as the head is raised no matter who well it is aligned at installation. I use a laser alignment tool to quickly fine-tune alignment before final prints are made. It's a great tool.

Very informative! She's very knowledgeable and clearly has a passion for silver-based imaging.
most people who want to develop b/w film want to do it the way they are taught ny the person they like. I lend my students a tank and reel to take home and practice with. They get it and then they are fine with steel. What's your beef? That the few people interested are going to give up film because there is a little skill involved? That's what they like about it!
