The biggest that I've done is 40"x50" or about 1/2 the size you are trying
to make. I have used trays ; )     Although the small canal/deep tray works
OK for some, I though it hard to see the image. working slightly more dilute
we did do some bigger images. Flat in part of the tray to get the chemical
on the paper then, rolling it up one way, and then the other. I'd adapt to
the space available. How do you plan to wash it? I use a tray siphon.

Dear All,

I'll probably have to develop large FB paper sizes (around 50"x75") soon,
what methods would you advise ?

I know the following methods:
- roll forth and back the paper in a home-made "canal" deep tray. This one
looks ok.
- the sponge (let the paper on the floor on a large plastic sheet and apply
the chemicals with a sponge).
I know some that did it but don't see myself doing it ...
- the home-made drum seems unpractical due to its weight

Thaniks in advance,
Claudio Bonavolta
