I'm a little hampered by regular lack of access to a densitometer (occasional access is not impossible -- I just don't want to strain the friendship until I feel more confident of results) so I'm eyeballing them as best I can using the step wedge on the light box comparison method. True, the densitometer is quicker... but for teaching purposes at least, I thought the "white card on the light box" was better.
