I’m always embarrassed when a student comes to my studio. My equipment is so fugly. My main sensitizing box is 1/2" poplar built around the Pyrex dish. I used the handy but ugly butt-joint and there’s dried glue drips going down each side.
In my "spare" time I have been cobbling together this really attractive sensitizing box with pretty dovetails, inlay, etc. but I never can find the time to finish it. Perhaps on Sunday.
My "darkroom" is a corner of the studio that I have masked off with thick black plastic painter’s drop-cloth. All of these little quirks serve to remind me that daguerreotypes can be made with fairly loose standards and still come out looking great. It’s no Castle Daguerre but it’ll do.
