I want to thank everyone who offered tips on using a tray siphon.
After playing around with it, I found a flow rate where it started to
do the periodic siphoning that Randy mentioned. So far I've only
tried it with RC paper; fiber will be the next hurdle.
Meanwhile, printing the backlog of negatives accumulated in my period
without a darkroom is going well. The only casualty (if you don't
count lost sleep and tired feet) is a constant voltage transformer
(acquired as part of a package with a bunch of other stuff). I know
it's not strictly necessary for black and white, but I figured since
I had it I might as well use it. It lasted four hours and then
simply stopped working. Not sure if I'll try to have it fixed; the
humming noise it made was irritating.
And you folks were right about uneven floors. Both the sink and my
other project (a table for the enlarger) wobbled a bit in the garage
where I assembled them-obviously a worry for the enlarger stand.
But, when I moved them into the laundry-cum-dark room, they sat
solidly on the floor! How likely is that?
