Should there be a Wet Plate subforum?

[Ari]

Online tutorials via Vimeo login. You can download copies to your own computer.

Does one need to be a Vimeo subscriber?

No, Quinn gives a login and password to access the tutorials. No Vimeo account needed.

Thanks, Paul.

Additionally we can download and save the vids, which I really like

Thanks, Paul.

Thanks, Randy. Very nice to have that feature.
I have a lot of WP materials on order, some for the camera, most of it for the process. A few extras too, like glass beakers, which I foolishly sold in 2015.
Won't all be here for a few more weeks, the post office is very much backlogged and understaffed, but I'm just grateful they're still in operation.

I wouldn't have much to add to a WP sub-forum if it started today, but in a few weeks, I'll be all over it.

My plan is to study Quinn thoroughly

set up gear and make some decisions

then start

I am good at book learning if the book is good

I loved using Cummins Diesel Engine OE manuals to rebuild and Dyno test

Every detail and step was explained in text and pics, with specs, the engines ran LN

If you want to have some user question/answers and techniques discusssed for wetplate, I'd have sections on:

1. Equipment needs, cameras and lenses. Making, buying, adapting.
2. Chemistry, problem solving and techniques to store, make, buy, use
3. Developing and finishing techniques.
4. Results, show your work.

Clearly spelled out, thanks. It looks like this could amount to a forum-within-a-forum, largely or entirely segregated from the rest of the Forum. Would appreciate thoughts as to whether that is in fact the case, and if so the pros and cons of it.

I feel like this was getting lost in the noise being the 10th post and other stuff burying it to last page. So bump for Oren . It's not illegal here, right .

One measure of how serious the interest is, is the extent to which people are willing to go beyond "we want" to think through the details of what exactly it is that they want, so that we can figure out whether we can make it work here. Garrett has stepped up with a substantive proposal, will anyone else follow?

Really no need to "decontaminate." There's been hundreds if not thousands of tracings done now and I don't recall a single instance of someone catching something that was shipped days ago. Remember, this stuff is shipped by ground and that takes a number of days.
