Be warned that black ABS drain pipe (even the thick kind)
passes some "Light". I guess that it is UV since it exposes
the blue layer on some positive acting color paper. (I did
this trick about 25 years ago).
 I bet the tube trick would work for slow B&W materials in a
"darkened" room, but watch out for too much TIME in the
light.
