The Dimple-Bottom Plastic Developing Tray from Cescolite is a high-impact plastic tray that holds fiber- and resin-coated prints up to 11 x 14".
The tray has a dimple bottom, which makes it easy to pick up a print from its backside. A pouring lip in one of the corners of the tray makes it easy to dispose of chemicals.

I have used Cescolite trays since the 1960s. They are durable and high quality. The dimple trays are essential for sheet film processing.
very comfortable to use, with the dimple no sticky prints, need less liquids than the Paterson's. Made from a strong plastic material, which is easy to clean.
I've dedicated these for developing my 8x10 sheet film. The dimples make it easier to lift the film as it is shuffled---which is much easier than using trays with ribs or using flat bottom trays (torture!) The only downside is that these trays aren't inexpensive, but then nothing about 8x10 format is inexpensive. The peace of mind I get from using them and not getting scratched negatives is IMHO worth it
its not what class required but it serves the same purpose
This is the only plastic tray I own; I prefer stainless steel for all darkroom items. But 8x10 sheet film can stick like glue to a flat-bottomed stainless tray. This solves the problem and is a quality product as well.
These trays are great to use. Your prints will not stick to the bottom. The trays are big enough to enable easy use of tongs and small enough to allow economical quantities of chemicals. They are also easy to clean and store and a compensating temperature probe fits close to the bottom. I wish I had discovered them years ago!
