I made a cart out of 2X4s and plywood. It holds four 16X20 trays. 3 shelves are pull-out drawers which I stagger when developing, then push back in when session finished. The base of the shelf is plywood and the guides are 1X2" screwed onto the sides, above & below the plywood. They hold the weight of the water quite well, but commercial drawer guides might also work. the height of the cart is to the top of utility sink. When developing, I stair-step the print down, going from developer to rinse, to two fixers. The cart or a similar under-the-counter structure could be made to fit any tray size you want. Paint it with something water proof since there sill be some splashing.

They were listed as "tray ladders."I made my own one-level tray support out of of 1x6 lumber, painted, like the sink, with marine enamel. It is really nothing more than a shelf that allows me to stack the two fixing trays.--Ben ----- Original Message ----- From: ATIPPETT@xxxxxxx To: pure-silver@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, August 23, 2009 6:58:33 PM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: [pure-silver] Stacked Developing trays I have run out of table space for my trays.
