Hi frameworks
I've got some developing a foot tis weekend. I usually develop one film at a time in my 50ft tank instead of 2. This time I'm going to do 2 at a time. However I have hit a problem... Well two problems actually. The first:
I snapped the smaller thread off the tightening device. Just snapped right off the last time I developed. I've made a quick fix but will be needing a new one. Any ideas where I can pick up lomo spares anyone? I don't really wont to have to buy another tank. I just need the little thread bit.
Secondly, I poured one litre of water (I'll be using a 1ltr kit) into my developing tank just to make sure the water would cover both spirals. NO WHERE NEAR! In the bottom of my tank there was a little plastic nipple that raised the spirals. I sanded that off... Still no joy, the water still only just hit the surface of the top spiral... So I got my dermal and cut a bit of the base of the lower spiral... It just about works now but I would feel more comfortable if I new the chemicals completely submerged both the spirals.
So I'm wondering if I add an extra 10ml of water to the first/colour developer, bleach fix... etc... would that make any difference to the developing times or much difference to the final outcome of the developed film? Would it still work ok?
ThanksKevin
