Frankly, I'm still quite a newbie into B&W processing yet, so far about 15 rolls (mostly Tri-X), all in HC-110. Do you mean that FORMULARY is kind od set of chemicals aimed to mix up into various kind of commercially available developers ? Sound kinda lego... ;-) Does that allow to yield HC-110, XTOL and other developers similar to those available commercially ? That might be solution, however I suspect lots of precise chemical measurements and hassle may be involved...am I wrong ?
