At college we have a film dryer closet. Just looks like a tall narrow metal closet with timer and heat thermostat controls on top. Usually does it in about 20 minutes. It does a good job and doesn't seem to get the negatives dusty either. I imagine you could make one, but need to make sure the air is recirculated mostly, or I think you'd get all kinds of dust. If you get it too hot you'll adversely curl your film as well.

Anybody know of some safe, time proven way to speed up the drying of film after it is taken out of final rinse? I am currently just hanging to dry in a air conditioned room but it's taking about an hour to fully dry which is sometimes undesireable. I'd be mostly interested in BW films both 35mm & 120 rolls as well as 4x5 and 8x10 sheets. Thanks in advance, JCO ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- J.C.
