well very soon anyway.
Just grabbed a bargain from a neighbor, a shed at just under 9 x 7 with insulation (like a foil coated foam type stuff) all in good condition. Being moved to make room for trampoline and I got the lot for £40.
I can now plan to get out of the kichen as the darkroom journey begins.

Good start Jon. Now you know what you've got size-wise then planning the rest around this should be relatively straightforward. Best of luck.

If this weather keeps up, Jon, you can go straight to C41 developing at 100 degrees F - no Jobo processor required :D:.

I've been inspired by the article here at FADU about building a darkroom shed. I currently have a rickety old shed that needs to be replaced. The concrete pad that it sits on is 7'x9', so I'm greatly interested to see (and probably pinch!) your design/build!
