I love it!!! I will say you Mr. Viseur my woodshop teacher would lose his mind if he saw you not using a push stick and not supporting your wood as it cuts. Lol.
I really appreciate you stopping by. This has been a fun journey so far and I look forward to sharing my adventure with people who are in the same boat. Don'' be afraid to say hi. I love hearing from you guys.
With the Chroma Lime emulsion my exposure times were in the 5-7 second range depending on the print/halftones. I've changed to a slower emulsion Chroma/Tech PL and now I'm in the 10-15 second range, again depending on the print/halftones. I'll admit that I was wrong about the Barina lights, they would have been fine and I'm guessing the exposure times would be in the 30 second range.. but that's just a guess.
I believe the 8-24in bulbs is a good number to cut down on shadowing and bouncing. I just think that the wattage is a little high for the 6" distance that I have in my box. You don't want to go down any further with the bulbs (because of said bouncing). I just think the lower watt bulbs may have been a better choice for my box. But this all has to be experimented with and tested to know for sure. At the end of it all, all I'm saying is that I think my time is a little fast. But with that said, I'm getting use to it.
looking at turning my basement into a printing shop as a hobby myself, appreciate you documenting all this, it will be very helpful!

Great video man thanks
Awesome thanks. Thank you for watching.
Did you ever get the halftones nailed?
Oh ya, it didn’t take long to dial in.
What was exposure times

You think 8 24in 30w led is to much
