Digital BW, The Print

So cut a hole in the wall and put in a window!  Or maybe a skylight?

| Interesting how we manage this... I remember my first apartment... 
| First used a spare bedroom with tinfoil taped in the windows and 
| carried buckets of water in to mix chemicals etc...
| 
| Built the house I live in now almost 20 years ago... The deal with my 
| wife was that she could design everything else, but I got a killer 
| darkroom...6 foot sink with 3 temp faucets, overhead safelight and 
| stereo speakers and nice fan in a 14x6 room... No wasted space, but 
| all I needed.
| 
| Kind of interesting how the evolution to digital went... Started by 
| having printers in the sink, then had the sink ripped out and now 
| have a horseshoe counter with the same relatively small standing 
| space (3x6 with a tall stool)... But all the comforts I appreciated 
| in a darkroom. It's only after completing the conversion that I see 
| the fallacy of it... I no longer need a DARKroom... What I am dying 
| for is a WINDOW <g>. (if this is my worse complaint, I must have it 
| pretty good <g>). I think I can pretty easily build a larger shelf 
| under the counter and sort of go "vertical" downwards with some 
| grommets for wiring etc... Great to have new challenges...
| 
| would love to see some of your work on the 7000... Looking forward to 
| a print exchange you are in.
