120 FIlm Clip for P6*6 Pinhole Camera by schlem

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

This is an accessory for the P6*6 Pinhole Camera: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:157844
I discovered that film sometimes unwinds when unloading the P6*6 (doesn't appear to be brand specific). This can cause nasty light leaks from the top and bottom of the roll, ruining several negatives at the same time. I previously advocated for gluing a small block of foam onto the inside surface of the uptake spool cavity, but I find that the foam absorbs glue, becoming too stiff to allow the insertion of an empty spool when loading.
This clip is inserted with the empty uptake spool (despite the pictures of a full spool). As the roll of film is used, the clip loosely holds the film snug against the spool, allowing unloading without the light leaks and fogging ( For more information, read film_clip_instructions.doc in the downloads section).
