Well, I have bitten the bullet and picked up a Jobo CPA2 with lift
and a couple of 3010 and one 3006 expert drums. It will be a real
treat to experience the promised "random" movement of the chemicals,
particularly with 5x7. The 3006 will probably be dedicated to 5x7
work as I will not need the drum to dry that quickly between
processing runs - 5x7 is used much less frequently than 4x5 here.
The drums are normally supplied with a sponge on a stick for drying.
I was intending to place the drums in a Marrut cabinet drier after
use for quick recycling, however given the apparent construction it
seems that a sponge stick may be a better drying method. Would be
interested to hear from anyone who uses the drums.
So, I will now finally be able to be self sufficient for processing
trannies as the temperature control on the CPA2 is reputably better
than that of the CPE2.
Can't wait!
Cheers,
Clive
