Glad to see these posts on spoolling film. I've been loading 100ft. Eyemo loads in a Harrison Tent by hand. It's a great way to develop repetitive stress injuries to the wrists (as well as a superb way to go insane). Once the film is wound the first time, I've been winding it the second time on a Morse G-3 tank in the tent. The whole time I dream about film winders and a proper dark room, while shooing my cat away from the tent with my chin. Loads of fun. Thanks for the tips on getting the length right. I've been kind of stumped on how to do that.
