First the ones on the site say specifically 35mm only? Or I remember reading that.Quote:

They're for transferring exposed film from the cartridge to the spiral, i.e. they are spiral loaders. They are not bulk loaders for transferring unexposed film from the bulk spool into the cartridge.
You can see in that picture several sizes - note the widths of the film tracks (the flat bit of metal) and the diameters of the little cartridge-holding sections.
Thanks, I was confused before, haha got it now, and yay! Can't wait to find out the prices... I'm now inspired again about 70mm :)Quote:

Thank you for correcting me (post #8)!Quote:

Found this: developing 70mm in unmodified Paterson. Shorter lengths, obviously. I just tried the exact same arrangement on a couple of Jobo 25xx spirals and the gap between them is... 70mm.
So at least I know I can shoot & soup 220 lengths without a special tank.
Great Information!
I thought I had mentioned that 116 spools would fit 70mm?Quote:

Neither Paterson nor Jobo refer to type116/70mm for their current reels. So that trick above adds to their compatibility.
Oh man I fail...Quote:

I actually tried this without the second side at the bottom and it failed so I gave up on that haha I was so close!
Anyway I actually found a 116 reel that is self loading, I had already bought one 116 tank that sucked and would load from center but it was plastic so it was a pain staying in the track. Then found a self loading one.
I'm keeping the other one though bedside it's adjustable and I can do 110 in it I think.. At least I can do advantix for sure.. Though I'm sure it will be a PITA lol
Thanks polyglot :)

Sounds interesting.
