Hi, first post in a long long time. I've had a scan about this section and haven't really found a definitive list of what I require. I am currently preparing for my first foray into B&W developing and have amassed almost everything I need but am a little confused as to what else I require.
So far I have:
Chemicals
Other things I require would be:
Is there anything else I am misisng here? As for storage, what is the most economical way of doing it? I'll be storing the chemicals under the kitchen sink. Can I get away with using, thoroughly washed, used drinks containers?
Thanks in advance for the advice. I look forward to posting up my first attempts.
