Re: Home
Two things of interest here , besides the image.
5x10 film holder - ?? please show as I have some 5x10 xray film I want to use with having to resort to a changing bag all the time.
Oil paper, can you explain how your doing this, last time I had a oily mess.

G'day Shane, thnx for your interest.
The 5x10 holders I made myself out of 3mm MDF, stiff black 1000gsm cardboard and Velcro loop.

They are made to fit a particular camera. The outside dimension is the same on all three shown but the cut out window is a different size on each. 4x10, 5x10 and 5x8.

They have only one channel and are loaded through the cut out window. The paper is under the channel on 3 edges and taped into place across the top edge.
Oiling is only for FB paper. I use baby oil which I brush on quite liberally then rub off with a paper towel after a few minutes. It is soon obvious if it needs more. I tried waxing recently but kept burning my fingers and found on some papers that the rubbing can leave a pattern. For me oiling is much faster, neater and less messy.

Oh it is, it is (?).
I could let you have a couple but you'd have to build or adapt a camera to fit.
Let me know, I've still got your address and I still owe you for your previous generosity.
