    Darkroom Equipment for free

    Hi,

    I have finally gone digital and have some darkroom stuff that I no longer need.

    It's a load of bits and bobs including a Paterson focuser, some jugs, thermometer, developing pots etc, and some chemicals.

    drop me a line if you would like it - ideally to pick up in Central London

    cheers,

    Les

    Welcome to the forum Les....A noble gesture, donating that equipment.If you have no takers....might I suggest your local community centre? With all those cutbacks in Education, they may be glad of the donation.

    The tears of laughter were running down my legs.

    Hi Dugc

    I have actually got a taker for this stuff, but some of the things I have two of - and I have quite a bit of paper.

    So - how about I split the stuff in two. I'll include some stuff for you to get you going and the larger paper I'll give to the other chap along with some other bits and bobs.

    Everyone's a winner

    Cheers,

    Tom.

    Works for me, best to spread the fortune I think... Paper is always useful but I'm mainly short of cylinders & storage... I don't need safelights at all so if you have those they will do more good for Doug I think - but however it pans out will be good

    ok - I'll see what I have to complete your kit. I must admit that I loved doing my own negs but nowadays with a small daughter and other things I never get time!

    Ant - I'll bring the other stuff along on Friday.

    Hi DugC,

    I have dropped off the stuff to Ant, and have some stuff for you.

    Hi, Les all I can say is bloody hell, cause I am in need of some darkroom equipment and yours would be ideal but I don't live near London and would be unable to pick it up from you. What a shame as I live in Lancashire Morecambe Bay to be correct, if only I had a magic wand. Anyway not to worry I'll keep looking.
    I do hope you have a lot of interest.
    Regards

    Well, on the whole, I wish I'd stayed in Tunbridge Wells.
