Here's kind of a panoramic view from the wash out sink to the inks and junk:







Still real excited about all of this. Had to up my building skills a bit too. Had to build a splash guard around the sink and I always wanted one that was back-lit, so I got a couple lights from my old work and mounted them behind some plexiglass. Then had to run 220 wire from the breaker to the dryer and install some lights over the press...all which scared the shit out of me, because I don't know anything about electricity. Suprisingly, it wasn't as hard as I thought. Then in the 2nd to last picture I had to build a light tight screen drying cabinet under the exposure unit, so I did a bunch of stuff that will seem boring when written down, but was really rewarding and fun to build. I set it up so it has slots for different sized screens and has a box fan in the cabinet to speed up the drying time. Totally killer!
Also, got this off a dude on craigslist and fucking love it:

It was about halfway painted red with a paint-marker...so it looked like complete shit. But I took it completely apart, gave it a good cleaning after stripping all the awful marker off of it, straightened the neck and it's ready to go. It has flat-wound strings and is a short scale bass, so it's really fun and easy to play. It sounds nasty and gross too. Love it.
DEATH TO BACK CLAMPS. LONG LIVE THE NEW FLESH.
