Bagged a ATL-1500
Today I bagged a brand new complete Jobo ATL 1500 film processor kit for £550. Never been used, the guy never got around to building his darkroom then he and his wife split up etc. etc.
Initially I am going to run it with a water supply from a 5 gallon bin via a caravan water pump and an aquarium heater to heat the water supply. Once the darkroom is finished it will be plumbed in. Time to re-jig the wet side plans. |

Well done. In a brand new never used condition it must be close to unique. Happy processing

For those in the future who may be looking, I have talked with a chap named Klaus in Germany who does the servicing for all the Jobo rotary processors and carries all the spares. I have ordered the Jobo heater for the external water supply from him.
Very helpful chap, impeccable English and a mind of info on the subject. Fotolaborservice Last edited by MPerson; 16th April 2012 at 07:25 PM. |

Well done, nice bit of gear! I'm running an ATL1000 plumbed in to a thermostatic mixer for E6 processing. Works really well. If you've got mixed up chemistry, getting home from shooting, loading the tank, and push go. Then go and make yourself a cup of tea, and as you finish your second cup your films are ready for drying.
My recent related purchase was another film dryer with one of those plastic bag drying cases. My existing cabinet isn't long enough for 35mm and I have to cut it. The dryer for £30 from eBay, so I thought i'd give it a go... |
