I've never done it or have one but I have seen them made from an inexpensive 500 watt Halogen Light set at 16 inches above center of the screen. haven't used QX-1 Emusion either however with the above setup they advise an exposure time of 12 minutes 30 seconds for Dual Cure Diazo Emulsions.. Like I said I've never made or used this kind of setup.. I use a commercial exposurre unit... so take the info for what its worth... Chuck
