Wow! Very ingenious. I like the use of air bubbles to agitate...

a lucky few can order one for about $2100 USD....

No Kickstarter plans for a mass production run though... yet....

I think it would sell well.. 35mm to 5x7.... BW/Color Neg/Color Slides
for its film size options, it is reasonable.

You're actually supposed to use nitrogen so you don't oxidize all your solutions.

But that is an awesome machine he's built!

I saw it already before. Made from a hobbyist. But still a lot of money because a second hand refurbished ATL is not that expensive. The new STARK processors are also cheaper. $1200.

There's also this, sort of a copy of Jobo ATL 1500. Brand new and made in China. Notice they also manufacture one type of drum as well as reels, 100% based on Jobo 2500 system.

The new STARK processors are also cheaper. $1200.

STARK looks hardly much of a processor. It just heats and rotates the drum, right? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

this needs to be a kickstarter.

STARK or Jobo CPE/CPA work in the same way. A big volume of water, regulated and a rotary system. At least in the STARK you can use all type of different drums.
