Update nearly 6 years later
I never bought N2 cylinder as I don't need it, I do have the correct new valve for N2. I have handled 1000's of N2 tanks in my time at work, in tiny spaces WITH great ventilation at a huge exchange rate, I worried more about knocking the valve off...that is impressive, I saw the movie
Been running on tiny quiet air compressor, just bought a second one so I can have one in DR and my shed. The new one is even quieter, same Brand
California Air Compressor
My process has not changed, 1 Gallon SS covered tanks with air plenum, 4 sheets 8X10, 8 Sheets 5X7, 16 4X5 on KODAK hangers
DIY timer air controller still running
I use Rodinol 1-100, water stop no agit, TF5 only, TF% seems to outlast me, I dump on a schedule. I test TF5 before every use, it clears fast, air bubbles seem to have no effect
Rodinol One Shot exhausts at 20 minutes, I often use 7 to 10 minutes depending on film, all tanks are in water bath at 20C controlled by slow flow HASS Valve
Wash is in same line slow plenum flow
I really like using the system. I hang all films to dry on KODAK double pinpoint hangers over my sink and wait for morning, door shut
ULF is done one sheet at a time in trays
I love my 2X3 sheet film tiny tanks, I even dry the film right in them
