I’ve located a bulk supplier of black glass and ordered some samples to test. I’m exploring the offering of silver gelatin based positive (ambrotype like) kit in conjunction with a monobath developer from Sam Hiser.

In addition, I’d be happy to support the collodion community and supply black glass blanks For traditional ambrotypes. Prices tbd.

Right now I’m gauging interest, as I’d have to buy in bulk to keep prices of both blanks and coated plates reasonable So, would this be of interest?

The glass is smooth like float glass, 1.5mm thick. Could be cut to any size. From what I understand, the traditional sources for this have dried up.
