Comments on: My latest darkroom http://hitesman.com/jason_blog/wordpress/2008/08/17/my-latest-darkroom/ The latest in a chain of attempts to keep friends and family updated about what I've been doing, just finished doing or am thinking about doing. Or at least what I want people to think I've done am doing or will be doing.

Plus there's a vent in the water heater closet (across from the washer/dryer) and a small gap under that door. A little bit of light gets in when it's sunny out...but at night it's more than dark enough. And we pretty much never close that door. Other than once or twice during parties it's always open. Partly so the dog can get from her door to her food/water...and party because we don't really need to close it for any reason. The washer/dryer are quiet enough we don't hear them in the living room with it open and if we closed it we'd never hear them beep to let us know they're done :D I do want to pickup a cheap bathroom fan and rig a better vent over the trays though. The room does not have as much ventilation as I'd like.
