Uneven tray development with X-Ray film

Why not try actual X-ray thread ? Seeing as it's getting so tech you?

You mean the one that's 417 pages long?

[SergeiR]

so techy.. bloody autocorrection.

But yes. One that actually has piles of tech information

Trying to actually find something in that pile, however, is kind of problematic. But I understand that people are working on that.

Funny but any picture of my '58 VW Bug turns out like that.

I know my red LED safelights aren't safe close up, definitely the super-bright LED bike light I used for a while is NOT safe either. But, I did not trust my development times I'd worked out previously since I was trying to shoot under tungsten light, so I had to get a close look at the thing before I stuck it in the fixer. That's probably were the problem is. I can live with the higher contrast continuous development would give---cyanotypes like it. I could also consider making open tubes of PVC pipe and rolling the film into the tube and rolling the tubes in a bath of Pyrocat HD---idea from david kachen---then I could develop more than one at a time. I don't trust myself to shuffle the film. Scratches too easily. Single side Ektascan is not that much more for 8x10 and definitely gets around the scratches on the side on the bottom of the tray thing. I set out to try to summarize the X-ray threads before they were merged. It's a long document with some contradictory information, way too long to just post here. I have the Word file somewhere on my hard drive, PM if you want my notes.

Could we share the document on eg Google docs and include some instructions on how to collaboratively edit it? So that additions are accompanied by a name and date, and some instructions to keep the document structured in such a way that it remains logical?

The google docs approach might work. I don't need ownership and it's far from comprehensive but it might help.

How do you put something in google docs so the world can see it? I guess I need to do some digging unless there's a dead simple answer one of you can provide.
