  1. This is going to be a reel for camera testing. I ended up making cardboard splitreels and then threw that on a pen with the film, 300', in between. Then I put a daylight reel in the camera and just rewound it using the rewind crank on my bolex. It wasn't until after that I realized your crank turn references weren't referencing the bolex. But ah well, it worked. Then I just hand wound the film onto another daylight spool so that it would line up. I definitely ended up with less than 100' on the spool, but it will be fine for testing purposes. Now I just need my light meter to come in.
  2. That's 46 1/2 turns on the rewind on a 8:1 shaft, and not the 1:1 right?
  3. I bought 200 feet of short ends and it came on a spool that I can't identify in the dark... It feels to be a small side less spool. I haven't shot on a bolex since college and just got a Rex2, but now I'm not sure if I need to respool this, or if I can just throw what I think is an uptake spool into the camera. Thanks in advance for the info.
