OK, some more photos for you all. First off, let me apologise for the pretty ordinary photos. The Filminator has now been built into its own room, and there isn't much space to swing a camera.
We'll start with a photo of the finished splicing cabinet. Note that when I said it used a 4" base, I should have said 5". For the record, each loop of finished product is 14m long.
And this is the mission control centre.
And now another view of the chiller unit. The builder is particularly impressed with his effort in designing this. Utilising a built-in container of ice-water, it pumps the water through a condensor from an automotive aircon unit (Ford, I believe) to chill the air.
Now the intereting bit - the "Extrusion slide coating head". Sorry for the crap image, there wasn't much light or contrast.
The Zenith emulsion pump.
Some examples of the finished product.
The builder, not satisfied with merely developing his own Kodachrome, is wanting to develop his
OWN Kodchrome.
BTW, Merry Christmas everybody. I hope Santa was generous.
