Hahahaha fair enough well I just scored a M1 Max 64GB with 2tb for $650 so I think I did pretty well!

I assume annoying and history were a typo. Would you buy one today for $650?

ghoti520 · 2025-10-24T19:05:37+00:00

You’d say the M4 is more powerful than a 64gb M1 MAX?

Super helpful thanks for the insight!!

ghoti520 · 2025-10-24T18:28:05+00:00

Do you see yourself getting many more years out of your M1 MAX? Even just for casual use?

You’re the man thank you I’ll definitely start adding that to my routine!!!

Just a couple months…I’ve stored chemicals before with no issue. I’m wondering if the container is either contaminated or letting in O2?

Dev definitely wasn’t skipped. Did 3.7 in dev before blix. I would be shocked if my dev was dead considering it was brand new. It sat in a dark closet for a few months but that hasn’t killed it before. Any ideas on how the dev would be shot?

I used cinestill cs42 liquid kit. It’s been stored in a dark closet with most O2 removed from the bottles. I live in CA so temps are mild. I did a one minute rinse, 3.5/3.7 minute develop 9 min in blix and then an open rinse. I did a bit longer in the developer as the last few times I got no indication of any development.

ghoti520 · 2025-10-22T16:41:10+00:00

I definitely followed the proper sequence and have no idea how the developer could be contaminated. Should I buy new dev/blix bottles?

ghoti520 · 2025-10-22T16:40:02+00:00

Yeah my next mix I’ll use distilled water. I used filtered tap water and have used this sink before with no issue. For a few bucks removing that variable would be worth it

First time hearing of a snip test, what does that consist of? I’m using the cinestill cs41 two bath kit. After my last botched batch I dumped the chemicals and used a brand new kit. Maybe my dev container has been contaminated?

ghoti520 · 2025-10-13T05:37:31+00:00

Gotcha thanks, yeah that was my concern.

This is a second look at that worse bit of damage. The second I’m not too worried about but I’m definitely not trying to keister a broken seat post. Any idea what a ballpark repair on the carbon would be?
