Jeff, did you download the instructions on the Frugal Photographer site? 
The directions is pretty clear to me. As for giant tank, I talked to David 
about that, and he said don't worry about it, the 500ml solution should be 
fine.

You want to send me some of yours for starter :-)? Actually, I may order 
some Formulary MCM-100. It seems to contain the same developing agent 
p-phenylenediamine. What I am looking for is the long smooth tonal range 
since the backend of my process is scanning and print. I want to have as 
much information to work with as possible.
