Alan, I wasn’t sure if you had received my reply to your email but looks like you did. I’m guessing you could detect my frustration with myself at not being able to produce dry plates as soon after moving as I wanted. However, that frustration is tempered by all the activity I see in the community with people making their own…. Just like I did several years ago and just like John describes of himself. This is because my goal isn’t to produce dry plates (tbh I’ve actually had time to do things like read books during this enforced downtime… halfway through the Aubrey and Maturin series), but rather to support growing interest in dry plate photography. So I’m glad to see you decide to make your own. Quite a few folks are doing that.
Cheers,
Jason
