Picked up 2 -4x5 inch "Plate Storage Boxes" and 1-4x5 "Plate Holding Tank". The boxes each hold 20 4x5 inch glass plates. The holding tank is designed to carry the plates in water after fixing and before the final wash. Wet plate work needs to stay wet, it can only be dried one time or the collodion will peal. Cost was $244 USD including shipping, expensive but necessary. I will be using the boxes in the field during long AMBROTOS KANATA trips to protect my completed 4x5 work.
