DIY rotary drum film processor with a long Paterson drum

My DIY rotary processor with large Paterson tank (takes up to 5 35mm films or 3 120 films).
The space between the wheels can be adjusted to fit for different tanks/drums.

Very cool, how do you quickly get the tank in and out to drain and fill it with different chemicals?

[kurotenusagi]

@PeteZ28 It takes about five seconds to take tank out out, draining and filling perhaps 10s + 10s

How do you automatically switch the direction of the motor?

[kurotenusagi]

@7NAMES With a simple circuit which uses relay to change polarity.

Hi...neat setup. Can you tell me what model Paterson tank is it? And can you provide a link for that product?

Thanks.

how do you make this? do you have any tutorial?

[christ0furr]

I agree. If at all possible I'd be interested in knowing a little bit about your choice of motor and your circuitry too.

Whoah, that is neat. I'm wondering...is this a prototype for a planned commercial processor? Or is there any chance of you ever uploading the plans for this somewhere? Anyways it's an amazing piece of work, best of luck!
