Darkroom Build

After a lot of planning and dreaming, I decided to get out of the laundry room and build a permanent Darkroom.
I know that is very hard and require to invest a lot of money to build the perfect Darkroom. I decided that I was going to build mine thinking on the future (Platinum/Palladium ) printing.
My budget was very limited, so during a year time, I patiently searched for all Darkroom equipment including cabinets, on craigslist and eBay.
The place where I spend the most money was in safety, I build a top of the line ventilation system that will allow me print and mix Platinum/Palladium in the future.
Thanks to all the wonderful post and help from the community I started my build.

DarkRoom data:

-Horseshoe arrangement with wet side on the left, wet/Jobo in the middle and dry side on the right.

-96x36 sink that supports 20x24

-Two exhaust ventilation 48 and 24 wide located at the belie level so it will never rise to your nose. Powered by an exterior exhaust fan with filter.


Here are some images from the beginning to the current progress.

Traveling Man Sculpture (Deep Ellum), Texas

The Animation Studio where I work, designed this Sculpture for the City of Dallas a while ago.
Recently I took some pictures with my Hasselblad 500 cm (Kodak TRI-X 400) Black and White film.
