Do you know where I can find some info on how you would go about homogenizing and regulating the crystal size and shape development? Is this something a hobbyist could do?

I just picked up a Zeiss ikon sonata 9x12 camera for €25! I will need to replace the ground glass as it came with non and I got a 120 film holder for it so I can start to us it when I service the lens. What it did not come with was the glass plate holders so I'm sure that would be easy for you to design. Its great to see your company go from strength to strength.

Do you think you could be able to do sheet film holders ? They are super hard to find in exotic sizes like 10x12 inches...

This is amazing and imaginative work. You take what looks like a problem or challenge - and turn it into the latest Zebra achievement. It's absolutely inspiring to see what you do all the time. You're the J.S. Bach of photographic innovation! Also: you should win an award for One-handed Filmmaking. 😸

You do great work. I have enjoyed all the products that I purchased from you.

so simple that I didnt think of it, awesome

Thanks brother

about the 2% salt solution you diluted it up to 100ml but it seems you filled your 250ml bottle container from that beaker. TIA

Thank You for your simple, to the point explanation of salt printing, easy peasy. I think I will try this method after I work on cyanotype for a while. Much obliged.

Where did you buy your container? Did it have the window and door pre-installed?

If you use an acid stop bath between the developer and the fixer bath you won’t need the chrome alum to prevent frilling the edges. Which emulsion was this?

Hi, thank you for all your brilliant videos. This might be a very stupid question but - is it possible to make the positive plate directly from an enlarged negative, without making the negative onto glass? Thank you!

why would you shoot 4x5 then scan with an iPhone. use better optical scanner.

Why does the camera look like a projector

This is a very helpful video. What temperature do you heat the emulsion to before pouring?

Thank you for a most interesting, instructive and helpful video. I’m completely new to dry plate photography, and I bought a box of your Zebra 9x12 plates earlier this month to try in one of my pre-war cameras. I don’t have access to a dark room, so I’ve bought a Stearman Press 8x10 Daylight Tray. From your video, it seems that developing your plates by observation is ideal for optimum results, so I feel that a completely closed process might not be so successful. Have you used an SP-8x10 for your plates, and if so, do you have any suggestions regarding technique for best results, please?

Me to! 😊

I want to know how much chromium alum should be added

Does any one use this light box for anthotype print using turmeric?

QUESTION - AFTER I MIX SULUTION A & B, WHEN SHOULD I ALSO ADD THE POTASSIUM DICHROMATE ?

Excellent vid , Do you have a link to the less and wires used?

Can you explain more about how specifically you create the mixture for buffing the image at the end? Thank you!

This is amazing. I mean that image is just phenomenal.

I prefer long videos (and movies) when the content is interesting - this is interesting to me - no need to apologize for the length. Thank you for making this.

superb work

i really appreciate what your are doing cool stuff

Where do you buy emulsion

I just got my Voigtlander Avus 6.5x9 cm camera cleaned up and running. Is there any chance you will be making 6.5x9cm dry plates?

What material did u use?

Hi. Thank you for this lovely video. I just heard about caffenol today for the first time. I haven't done any BW processing since 1980. Quite interesting to hear about caffenol and feel like trying it. What's to be used as the fixer, please?

Very useful, thankyou!

One of the better videos of this type (after admittedly just a brief low-level search) - do any screenprinters here know which are the best LEDS for exposing Diazo photo-emulsion?

Where did you bougth silver nitrate ? In slovenia ?

Does the unit get hot? Thanks

Just a little tip. If you look at your pliers, you see one side consists of two wedges, while the other side has two, essentially parallel surfaces. Makes very little difference in cutting the wire, but peeling the insulation is different. The direction you used causes squeezing of the insulation, making it to try sticking. Turning the pliers the other way pushes the loose end along easier! Try it!

salut j'avais des vieilles plaques vierges inutilisable et des plaques loupées. J'ai retiré la couche en les trampant dans un bain avec 70g de bicarbonate de soude et 150 ml d'eau

I just got a 80 years old enlarger, and it's very rusted. What products did you use to clean the parts?

Thank you for making this video

Hello there! Thank you for this video. How do you recommend cleaning these glass plates after the photos are developed on the glass? I have a series of photographs on glass and they are very dusty but I do not want to disturb the emulsion by improperly cleaning them. Suggestions?

about your shop, could you sell starter standard kits, with one pack of tin plates + chemical + holders 4x5 because it's a bit confusing what to get first.

what have you done with those plates ?

Thank for your video. I don't work with emulsions (yet?), but like experiment with different films and papers. I have a question about UV sensitivity: is it possible to use a UV filter to block unvisible light and take more predictable results with custom emulsions on different light conditions?

Wow, what an amazing gift! Can't wait to see what you can do with these plates. No pressure!

Awesome

Great teacher! Thank you

did you try dry plates for portraits with strobes (or any light) ? and could you make a video about it ?

I love your videos on location, slowly dry plates start interesting me a lot. I love the results

Thank you for this information. Just to let you know, it's Final Thoughts

I love long videos and slow photography

Beautiful video and photographs
