All you need in addition to this is plates of the correct size to fit your camera and sufficient silver nitrate crystals, or premixed solution to sensitise them.
We do not include instructions with the kit as the process requires far more knowledge than we can put across on a couple of sides of A4 paper. we recommend you purchase a copy of 'Chemical pictures'. Unfortunately due to the way these books are produced it is not possible for us to purchase at trade prices so we recommend purchasing on amazon here: Quinn Jacobson - Chemical pictures - Ambrotypes, Tintypes and Alumitypes
