Hello Jonathan and All,
So I have dialed in all my exposure problems and had several decent exposures...only to have a new problem pop up (I feel like I'm playing whack-a-mole).
The glass on my exposure unit is warped and now negatively affecting exposures. I am not using a lot of weight (maybe 30lbs tops).
Is there a way to "un warp" the glass or am I stuck ordering a new piece of glass? And what could be causing the warping towards the side?
I use a huge piece of foam, then a piece of plywood then the weight.
Thanks so much for all the help along my journey!

Re: Warped Glass?
Hello there,
That is very odd. Usually glass will not warp unless it's very thin and exposed to excessive heat. But I have never seen this personally. I have no idea how to work with glass that way so I would recommend buying a new piece that is a bit thicker. I think we use 1/4 inch non coated glass on our exposure units.
Usually only people who use Plexiglass will see this issue.
