How do you make hypo?
It's just plain Sodium Thiosulfate:

Yes, fixer formulas are not critical and closer to cooking recipes than
rocket science, so it's pretty easy to play with.
Some, like plain hypo, are very basic ...
I forgot to mention the main reason I switched to neutral-alkaline fixers:
my lungs are pretty sensitive to sulphur dioxide and removing the acid
drastically reduces the release of that nasty gas.

I just posted some variations on Kodak fixers. This is like a
combination of F-7, rapid fixer and F-24, a non hardening
thiosulfate fixer. I have no doubt it works. F-24 has more
bisulfite in it so is more acid but not as acid as a hardening
bath would be.
