HI Greg, I just read Joe Rollins' excellent suggestion on using cypress, this one might help on construction techniques:
Check "Build Your Own Home Darkroom" by Lista Duren and Will McDonald. It has a couple of pages of simple, clear instructions on building wooden duckboards, the strainers for darkroom sink bottoms. It also gives a couple of suggestions for cheap alternatives, like using plastic light diffusers resting on plastic pipe. I've owned the book for a while and have found it usefull for novice woodworkers like me. I've also seen the book in any number of popular bookstores and camera/photo stores. It might help just to look at it for the duckboard plans.
