RE: [Digital BW] Big OHP

2006-10-13 by Eric Neilsen

Platinum is not like silver that allows for rough handling. I have seen a
few large contact frames, but not that large. I have made them as big as
30x40 with conventional methods and still can now with digital. 

 

It will be harder to find paper that big that doesn't need to be reworked to
get a good coating. I did make a few with the Photo Rag 308 that were OK, so
may be that might work. Trying to get an even coat on something that big
would suck up the R&D budget for sure.

Right, who cares about the trays. You can make em easily with plastic
sheeting and some boards. But the platinum. Wo. That's gonna cost ya.
Better have a dynamite negative.
