In my basement I have everything (including a rotary print dryer) that I had in the darkroom in my parent's house before my mother sold it to move to a retirement apartment. I'm always at the computer at work when I'm not out shooting, so making wet prints would be a welcome change of pace. I always liked working under safelights with both music and the sound of running water.
