If I understand you rightly, just mix up a gallon in a bucket, and likewise for the fixer and hypoclear, and do your processing from one bucket to another in the dark (or under a safelight for 7363). Especially if the film strips are short, this is (I submit) the fastest and easiest way to do it.
Use a stainless steel pot for the developer to get it to temperature (in a water bath), and put a floating lid on it between uses. -Robert Schaller > That 110 reel is nice but buying it is going to cost more than buying > another bag of Kodak D-19.Why don't you just have your chemistry in > buckets or bottles and do dunk processing of your test strips?
