Buy a JOBO and do B+W yourself...!  Labs don;t care.  Inconsistency rules.

You will need a closet or darkbox or changing bag to load the reels.  Space
to store the CPE2 ( the CPP or CPA are huge by comparison, and the ATL
series is another $3000), and some safe place to store chemistry.  HC110 is
a liquid, use water as a atop bath; you can buy rapid fix as a concentrated
liquid.  Mixing chemistry is a 3 minute job.

YOu will also need a place to DRY the negs, away from dust.  A bathroom is
fine.  USe alcohol after your last rinse to make drying a 5 minute issue.

Ain't as cheap as SS reels, nor as convenient as a lab, but much more
consistent.
