As I gear up to get back into processing, I'm looking into trying a few things I've never had the opportunity to experiment with before. One process I've always longed to try out is lith printing. I've always loved the look, even on a computer monitor, and every print looks better full-size and in-person.
I've only started researching, but one thing I find (from a few sources, including Tim Rudman, whom I believe I recall Terri mentioning in the past) is that the materials are often in a state of flux with regard to availability and formulation. So, does anyone have any particular recommendations on papers, chemistry, and or basic advice and starting points for a beginner lith-printer in the present market state? Recommendations of books, articles, etc, are also welcome. Preferred formats will be 4x5 and maybe 35mm, and possibly 120 in 6x6.
