Well I took the plunge and purchased a 42"x 98 foot roll of Ilford MGIV FB Glossy today. I have for the most part figured out the issues around making big prints in my darkrrom space of 14x14 feet - we will see
. I have an 8x10 enlarger and a 240 Lens that covers eight by ten. I have a vaccum easel and I'l be getting some large plastic trays from Home depot or other....then possibly - since I am learning to weld build some bigger more permanent drainable process trays or I have two sections of PVC tubing roughly the diameter of expert drums, that expert drum lids will fit nicely- so I may join them and make a super large print drum I can roll.
So here are a few questions:
How do people mount prints this size? I have a Seal 110S has anyone ever used this Press to mount a very large print say 24 x 30 or bigger? Or did you go someother route?
Can glass be used in a frame that is 30 x 36 or bigger?
How is the middle of the print best supported in a frame this size?
