Melted 35mm film canister? 

BTW, thanks for the multiple posts lately, I always get excited knowing that I have Pocket83 videos waiting for me.

Wow, thank you. Comments like that make it worth it. I know it's a dumb little trick, but you're right: we can look at simple things in a completely different way, and doing so really opens up our options. I think that's a point worth sharing.

That's what makes you so unique.

Simon Heslop Film is still very fun to shoot, but you have to be willing to process your own film at home; it's way too expensive to send it out and it takes too long. Thankfully, processing film at home, even C-41 chemistry colour film, is actually way easier than you'd expect. Plus you get to keep the film canisters!

Have a good weekend, bud.

i watched the other one first and though "oh, so thats the high precision project he adjusted the drill press for" silly little laugh i had there :-D enjoyed both, looking forward to next friday!

Like marijuana? Or is it only mine that smell that way?

I would say it's a fair bet that you're not alone, Steve. According to a study done by the Army Corps of Engineers, 81% of domestic pot ends up in one of these at some point. I just completely made that stat up. But you can't prove it wrong.

VHS is now at an all-time low. Perhaps we should build a DVD shelf entirely out of tapes!

Later to be replaced with the computer cabinet built entirely from DVDs and labeled "netflix" on the side.

this would make a good video! *edit - even out of dvd cases would kinda make sense thanks to the interwebs

bonus idea: have SD-cards branded w/ common film brands from the old days.

lol i was thinking ok, step 1 take a film container, step 2 melt it. i must watch to see what the catch is

I ASSUME NO RESPONSIBILTY FOR THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION. I've opened them before. I've even done propane canisters, but I'm not quite right. Keep the nozzle depressed overnight to allow it to FULLY empty and equalize. If you get more than a 1/2 second hiss in the morning, try a different can; it's not worth it if it sounds like there may be a blockage in the valve that doesn't let it empty. At go time, make sure the room is warmer than the can, because warmer contents = increased volume/pressure. There will certainly be some risk involved no matter how you do it, so be sure to wear glasses. If you are puncturing the can, secure it in a vice and make sure that it exhausts away from you. Start like an assassin, from a distance (with a bb gun), and then move in closer as you gain confidence and understanding. Don't ever do anything that you don't feel comfortable with: if you aren't ready, research more.

I would say molten means it's still in a liquid state, whereas melted means it _was_ molten, then became set. Perhaps molten and melted are present and past tense, not sure. Food for thought though!

thx. I'm not a native speaker and glad about clearing it up

MrMeeeeToo I'm actually not sure, so don't take my word for it :P But it _seems_ right lol

I purchased a Canon Sure Shot Z135 for my girlfriend in 2000. But if you have a girlfriend now, I would suggest getting her a Nikon 1 J2. One more thing: don't text in front of her, because it's rude; give her your complete attention.

I still use them. I fail to see the contradiction.

Me too.

what do you use them for? do you still have an old camera?
