    Re: Best 4x5 Developing Tank

    already tried googling, Zak - without a specific reference or context - it's a bit hard to find... I asked a simple question to someone who was responding to a statement I made - I don't think it's out of line to ask them what they mean.

    I encourage those of you want a Nikor sheet film tank and reel to keep actively looking. After a couple of years I finally scored one. Yes it's easy to buy one for $275 or more. But if you keep looking you can get one for the same price as a new MOD54 and Paterson 3-reel tank. Persistence is the key.

    How much did you pay for your Nikor tank and where? I'm looking for one too.

    This may be a repeat, but hangers and tanks are the time proven 'best'. Hangers are now cheap used and tanks are what you can find, think creatively. Mix your own chems and stop trying to use as little chem as possible.

    Even that Nikon tank is a pain in the ass, compared to hangers.

    That is opinion. I would say trays are more "time proven" then hangers.

    Yes, and I use trays all the time, but this thread is about tanks, and Best.
