Home Darkroom

[Russ]

I know that it is quite popular to convert our home bathrooms into a darkroom. In order to have ultimate control of my B/W images, I've decied to go the same route. I've attached an image of my bathroom, and would greatly appreciate any tips on where to start.

Thanks
Russ

New seals for the door for sure! Oh, maybe a door too.

Those wood sticks on the right could also come in handy to hang negatives so they dry with the wind in a 100% dust free environment.

I guess the development tank is in there already...a big one...

Yours is obviously a COLOUR darkroom, mine is a B+W darkroom.

Where to start? I'd say at least 100 yards UPWIND of that place!

Your darkroom may get hot on sunny days if you seal it properly. Add air-conditioning or work only when it gets cloudy.

Bwa ha ha! Good stuff!

Don't forget to run an extension cord out to there for your safe light.
