Post your Screen/Expose Room!

[LuckyFlyinROUSH]

Post your darkroom up! We are in the middle of moving walls/restructuring ours....don't mind the mess. We have been putting off doing screens with how much dust we have been creating. Majority of our screens are in another room at the moment.

We are planning on moving the temporary spot for the Starlight and turning the new I-Image sideways and putting it behind the Starlight in the back corner. Taking out that door, and dry walling that hole.

Is your washout in your darkroom?

[GraphicDisorder]

Wish I could, we dont have a dark room.  Our ST and our Starlight are in our fully lit warehouse.  Screens are carried out of that 6,300sqft room into what once was a bathroom that has a washout booth/diptank.

Far from a "dark" room. We're in an open space. I used warehouse shelving to sort of make a room. I'd like to come back and improve on it at some point.

having actually worked in a real dark room, that was actually very dark, with red safelights only while developing film in trays, I think "darkroom" is a misnomer. In ours, coated screens are kept in a cabinet, and we have yellow safelights above while placing films on screens, and that's it, not dark at all. The washout sink is adjacent to a window, full daylight pouring in (not direct sunlight). Sorry, no pics handy...

We keep coated screens in our 2 vastex cabinets.  But thats also in our warehouse, under LED lights.

This is our set up, wash out is to the left of the picture. Sorry in advance if it's sideways.

Changed the title!

Our room isn't "DARK" either, that is just what we call it. Safe lights in room where fresh screens are, and over our exposure  unit. Its all confined in a big room, but seperate rooms are built into it. Reclaim is the huge booth, washout is the smaller booth. The picture of the screen rack actually has rolling racks on the other wall. I'll have to get a picture of it.

Nice photos. Great to see how other builds out their systems..
Here is our set up. Far from perfect.. but its a work in progress.

Screens, exposure in the same room.
We have some extra  screen storage under the Starlight...
Wash out are is a short walk from exposure room. We use a screen cart
mounted sideways to dry screens....

DCSP John, your place looks very tidy and organized.       Nice set up.

ours...  washout is in the shop about 15 feet or so outside the room:



we were limited where to put our screen room if we didn't want to move sprinkler heads... but this actually works out really well for us...

our "dark room" and washout room are a couple steps away from one another, but here they are!

I'm too embarrassed to show mine

[LuckyFlyinROUSH]

Lookin good everybody. Its cool to see everyone's different setups. Bimm, you can't really be embarrassed, our old "dark room" was two shelves and a tarp over it in the middle of a warehouse.

Here is the other side of our screen closet, should have 4 full racks of coated screens.

Bimmridder/Dave setup is nice! He has nothing to be embarrassed about, aside from the only reason he hasn't posted is he doesn't know how to use the camera on his phone:P

We are cleaning/prepping a wall in ours to paint(a pic will make sense) so ours is in 3 parts now, but I'll snap a pic in the morning.
