FS: Three BTZS 8x10 Developing Tubes
FS: Three BTZS developing tubes for 8x10 film $50 plus shipping. If you've
been using messy trays while you stand in the dark inhaling chemical fumes to develop your 8x10 film consider replacing the trays with these tubes. Once the film is loaded in the tubes you turn on the lights and leave them on, no more standing around in the dark shuffling film. Since the chemicals are in the tubes there's no chemical fumes, since the light is on it's easy to develop each sheet for a different time. No need to presoak. The View Camera Store no longer sells these tubes in 8x10 size so if you want to use this great system your only choice is to buy them used. The View Camera Store used to sell them new for about $50 each, I'm selling all three for $50 plus shipping. There are four caps with the tubes so you'll have an extra. One cap has a very very slow leak, so slow that I didn't realize it was there until I happened to fill the cap with water and let it sit for about a half hour and noticed an insignificant amount of water around the base. The amount of developer that leaks out when you're developing for ten or fifteen minutes is so tiny that the leak has no real effect but if it bothered you it could be easily repaired with any water proof type sealant from Home Depot, which is the treatment applied to one of the other caps. This system works perfectly, I've been using it as recently as a month or two ago, I mention the little leak and repair only in the interest of full disclosure, not because they have any practical effect. If you wish to buy the tubes or have any questions send an email message to bellis60atverizondotnet, replacing "at" and "dot" with the usual symbols. |
