4x5 c41 home processing? Advice? Non-Jobo equipment suggestions?

I find scanning positives far easier than scanning negatives, because you can already see what color the scan should have. When I bought my last Velvia 50, it was less expensive than Portra 160. Over here it was 45 euros for 10 sheets of portra and 77 for 20 sheets of velvia. Slides don't work for every subject, but if you have a shot where you can control contrast, Velvia still rules for me.

I've made a DIY home processor for under $100(excluding tank cost). Relatively easy to make. I'm in the process of putting together documentation if anyone is interested

Finished the "processor." Heating element coming in today. Will it test out for temperature reliability later this week. Has been used for precise temperature control in many other areas outside of film development so I'm confident that it will hold. Here is a preview pic of the temp control unit. Once I get the documentation together, I start a new thread in DIY or Darkroom when ready.
