I love it!!! I will say you Mr. Viseur my woodshop teacher would lose his mind if he saw you not using a push stick and not supporting your wood as it cuts. Lol.
I really appreciate you stopping by. This has been a fun journey so far and I look forward to sharing my adventure with people who are in the same boat. Don'' be afraid to say hi. I love hearing from you guys.
With the Chroma Lime emulsion my exposure times were in the 5-7 second range depending on the print/halftones. I've changed to a slower emulsion Chroma/Tech PL and now I'm in the 10-15 second range, again depending on the print/halftones. I'll admit that I was wrong about the Barina lights, they would have been fine and I'm guessing the exposure times would be in the 30 second range.. but that's just a guess.
I believe the 8-24in bulbs is a good number to cut down on shadowing and bouncing. I just think that the wattage is a little high for the 6" distance that I have in my box. You don't want to go down any further with the bulbs (because of said bouncing). I just think the lower watt bulbs may have been a better choice for my box. But this all has to be experimented with and tested to know for sure. At the end of it all, all I'm saying is that I think my time is a little fast. But with that said, I'm getting use to it.
looking at turning my basement into a printing shop as a hobby myself, appreciate you documenting all this, it will be very helpful!

Awesome thanks. Thank you for watching.
What was exposure times

You think 8 24in 30w led is to much

Did you ever get the halftones nailed?
Oh ya, it didn’t take long to dial in.
