Starting Collodion

I'm in my second year of a 3 year BA(Hons) Degree.  It's that time in the course where we need to begin thinking about what we want to do when we grow up. This is what I want to do.

About a year ago, as part of the course, I attended a collodion wet plate workshop. As is my way I got very enthusiastic and excited about this new (to me) form of picture making.  The desire to use wet plate collodion never left and this year, as I began to feel the precious time at uni slipping away I decided I should bite the bullet and learn this new (or old) skill.
As my tutor - Peter Renn had offered to help and support me I asked him where I should start.  He gave me a check list of 'stuff' to get.

And so began the adventure!
