First darkroom: plastic sheeting over a 2x4 frame. No sink. No door, just overlapping flaps. The 2x4 frame is still in the basement of that house, and the light fixture I put up to hold the safelight. I used computer cards to protect the plastic sheeting from ripping off the staples that held it to the frame. I helped people at Carleton College build a 4x8 darkroom sink for the Photo Coop darkroom. That worked excellently for the years I was there and some time beyond. (Wood, and then fiberglass.) My first attempts to do solvent welding with drain pipe materials were to make a film washer. Used that for a few years, then moved away from that house and never got a darkroom put into the next house. I've cobbled various scripts for manipulating photo galleries on my web server from my DAM software on my desktop computer. -- David Dyer-Bennet, dd-b@xxxxxxxx; http://dd-b.net/ Snapshots: http://dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/data/ Photos: http://dd-b.net/photography/gallery/ Dragaera: http://dragaera.info
