I usually set up dev, stop, fix1, fix2, water bath. I then print a batch, could be a large batch, and then clean up that set of trays, and go to another set: Hypo clear, wash (archival washer), toner, water bath. And then finally run everything trough the archival washer one more time before it goes into the dryer (I use a drum dryer for fiber). End result is that I only have a max of 4 trays set up at once (which will fit in my sink for up to 16x20), and a total of 6 trays for each size. When I do 20x24 which is the largest that I can do in my darkroom, I have to start stacking trays, which makes life much harder. I use a Zone VI holding bath which keeps fresh water circulating over my prints for the water bath, and a vertical slot archival washer for the two wash steps - these two things sit in a second 'sink' --- On Mon, 6/2/08, eroustom@xxxxxxxxxxx <eroustom@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > From: eroustom@xxxxxxxxxxx <eroustom@xxxxxxxxxxx> > Subject: [pure-silver] Re: Darkrooms > To: pure-silver@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Date: Monday, June 2, 2008, 11:11 AM > > I usually use only four trays.
