I want it please!

Jeff,

I'd certainly be interested in one if it was better than the daylight tank I use now. My current tank takes 30 seconds (if the gods are smiling on me) to unload developer and more on the 45 second times. I have learned to work with its quirks but is by no means great. 3 requirements I would have are a) easy to load 4x5 sheets, b) fast unloading of liquids and my reason for this is that I would like to be able to do divided developing where I need to completely unload liquid in a few seconds not a half a minute, and c) does not use more developer/fixer than my current setup with is around 1100ml - 4 or 6 sheets.

And I agree with the above, ignore the critisizms.

Are you opening the air path when filling or draining your tank but slightly twisting the Light Tight Hose Connector? That will give you the fastest fill and empty times on the Combi-Plan and fill and empty times should be the same if you have opened the air path.

Does the design require exact film sizes for safe and effective processing? Specifically, would your 4x5 tank accommodate 3-¼ x 4-¼ sheet film safely?
