this is the completion of the dark room and to add ventilation to it as i assume it will be really hot and there might be fire hazard if the hot air or smoke is not being ventilated out of IM room.
the pipe for the air pump for soldering in im room was damaged so i’ve repaired it
repair completed
I’ve purchased 4.2m of PVC pipe and ask the seller to cut it into 1m length for easier transportation
but I realised that i need the full 4.2m in the end so I stick them back
I also fasten the 4.3m PVC pipe to a bamboo pole to increase the strength. the machine was placed at the only openable window to draw the smoke out
did a marking from the inside of the dark room for the ventilation pipe
I screwed the 90 degree bracket to secure the pipe
forcing the pipe in
and secured using wires and ropes
tapped from the outside as well as inside.
the bottom of the walls
tapped it securely to increase structural strength and remove light leaks
the top of the opening of the dark room
fasten a wooden plank for structural support as well as to finish the roof.
final piece of roof
previous ziptie were removed and re-fastened for the final roof piece
roof folded down
cardboards were cutted for a smaller opening
the side of the opening
the overall darkroom done.
lastly, i realised that the air flow wasn’t that good so i detached a ventilation fan from my house and attached it onto the dark room.
The ventilation fan from my house
attached onto the structure of the darkroom with screws.
and the cardboard was cutted out
cardboard were added to reduce lightleaks.
And the dark room was done!!!
next post will be the final post for the Analog submission for this project.
