The kinds of things that, while aren't necessities are just so darned nice to have and you don't feel like you've wasted money on them? I try to keep my dark room spartan, but I do have a few very useful not exactly a necessity accessories.
I'll go first---
A Print Washer. Mine's a Versalab I got it years before we were put on water meters so I suppose for once I was ahead of the times.
A Contact Proofer. Mine's a Printfile. Easier to use than the contact frame, safer than a plain sheet of heavy glass and cleaner (no fingerprints) and far less expensive than one of those contact printers.
An exposure guide.The old Kodak circular step tablet. I think Delta makes the same thing now. Making a 1 minute exposure with one of these on the test print is simpler than blocking the light in intervals (or at least is seems that way for me)
A dry mount press. This one is an old bug eyed Seal Jumbo 150. It flattens fiber prints flat.
A light box. A See-Rite from a crafts store (Michael's?) is what I have. This is great for revealing defects in negatives before printing.
What not exactly a necessity accessories do you find useful in your dark room?
