I want to make a 'darkroom' box to process X-rays. I have made a design
but want advice on construction material for the areas in contact with
developer and fixer. Any advice? TIA

What size X-rays, and how many at a time?
I used to do loads of that slightly smaller than 10"x8" size *. Dish
developed them, 6 at a time. Then, when the numbers increased, I had a
Perspex rack made up to take 20 and fit into 3 gallon tanks. It's
probably still knocking around somewhere if it's any good to you.

* Bloody 'orrible job - glad I don't have to do that any more.
