6 More Cement Trays Needed!

I basically ran out of trays to store wet plates in on both the Saturday and Sunday shoots at the plant. I will need to buy 6-10 extra trays and set them up with the separation cork, aloiwing the trays to be stacked with wet Ambrotypes inside-

I am surprised how easily some of the plates are coming now. Over the 2 days at the plant they were coming out fast and easy with few mistakes. Things have come a long way since I bought the darkroom trailer 5 years or so ago and was making shitty 4x5 tintypes.

More mass produced plates require more trays! 24x24 inch and 35x35 inch Ambrotypes seem possible today.
