Well, it's time to extract some Super 8 film from it's plastic cartridge and load it onto the Russian, Lomo UPB-1A developing tank spiral. This is the current workflow that works for me. Let me know what works for you!
Thanks for watching!

I have cartridges of exposed film from years ago, and I've been waiting for the know how in this video for ten years. I can't thank you enough.

@Filmboy24 2 года назад

Thank you for your kind words, David!! Best of luck with your films.

Mike - this video is outstanding. From an engineering perspective, it's M.I.T. outstanding. Thank you for posting. And get a patent on the FilmBoy 24 motion picture spool-to-spool-to-Lomo-tank-dual-reel-system-thingy (or whatever you want to call it) and bring it to market, my friend. "Call now and he'll double your offer! Just $19.99 plus S+H! But ya gotta call now! Here's how to order!" Think of the possibilities!

Just found your channel and it’s great! So much great content. I’m going to try to 3D print my own reel and use a 5 gallon bucket in the dark.

@Filmboy24 3 года назад

Thanks Tyler, appreciate it! I would absolutely love to see what you come up with. I've often wondered why no one has managed to re-fabricate these reels. I know they're pretty precise but it doesn't seem impossible. Good luck and please keep me (and everyone) updated!!

@tylerhuttosmith 3 года назад

@@Filmboy24 I won’t actually be designing the print or really even printing it myself. I’ll probably pay a friend to print it, but check out “GNAL not a lomo tank” They’ve created the files and go over wha all would be needed to create the reels. It’s a good time for 8mm/S8/16mm!

@@tylerhuttosmith, I've seen that site, loaded with awesome stuff, thanks for pointing it out again (just bookmarked). Have you ever seen one successfully printed? I'd love to know that it's possible.

I forgot about your paperclip “trick”. Yep, still having a big time struggle with loading Lomo reels🙁. Anyway, I’ve been using a straight piece of paperclip (as shown in another video,,,Adrian Cousins I think) and not working out at all for me. Anyway guess I need to get some more old film to keep practicing.

@Filmboy24 2 года назад

I've definitely found that practice is the key. The paperclip thing works for me sometimes but if I'm being totally honest, I haven't found anything that works as well as my old faithful rubber band and little spacer/bushing. I've never had an issue with the pressure plate staying down while using that method. One of these days, I'd love to create a "housing" that a super 8 cart fits into that does all of that for you :) Don't give up!!!

@gtrplayer1000 2 года назад

Is the rubber band/spacer shown in one of your videos? Thanks for all your help.

Hey, is it possible for you to make a video and explain how you would do it with two rolls of super8 in LOMO tank... Kind Regards, Eren

@Filmboy24 9 месяцев назад

Hey Eren, that’s definitely a possibility, I’ve been meaning to update my Lomo video for quite a while now.

@Ni5ei 10 месяцев назад

8:54 Why don't you wind it the other way 'round the first time? Seems unnecessary to do it in 2 steps 🤔

@Filmboy24 10 месяцев назад

It's not possible to orient the film properly without starting from the other side. The only quicker method would be loading it onto the spiral directly from the cart, which rarely works well with old film.

@Ni5ei 10 месяцев назад

@@Filmboy24 I think I'm missing something then. I thought all that matters is that the emulsion is on the outside of the spool.

@Filmboy24 10 месяцев назад

@@Ni5ei The perforations need to be facing down as well, in the grooves. This is because there are occasions where the chemicals may miss (air bubbles, etc.) the film in the grooves. Since there is no picture on the perfs, they always go down. It's easy with 16mm 2-perf film, as it can be wound directly on.
