I had my own color darkroom for about 15 years, doing color prints with a Besseler 23C/Dichro head enlarger & some exposure meters I built, even brewed my own color developer because the commercial stuff was so hot it faded from print to print just sitting in the constant temp bath. OTOH, I could hand you a very professional looking 8x10 color print on heavy mat paper, for about a dollar without my time added in. It was fun, but it turned into drudgery after a while when an order for 8 8x10's of somebodies wedding took till 4AM to finish. I made it pay for the expendables, but can't say as I ever made a 'take it to the grocery store' profit.
