Ray Morgenweck RIP

DUH<<< I just wasnt trying hard enough! so afraid of breaking things....

I just got in a lightly used Morse tank to do my processing. I printed out the manual off the web, question I have concerns clamping the film into the reels. The picture I posted shows an upright piece within the opening which is the clamp. When I put a piece of film in, the clamp certainly holds it, but makes no attempt to stay tightly clamped. Am I just missing something obvious here? Im ready to carve out a rubber block to wedge in the opening, to hold the latches tight. Ideas, am I missing a part?

Well, theres another one on ebay right now, from the same seller. Go for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think finding the tripod head was a major score....it was on ebay with one of those irritating LONG auctions that started at a buck or so. Heck with that. I emailed the seller, made him a silly money offer, and he took it! The tripod is unique to the camera, and the legs are Kodak ones that I modified with original style attachments to the head.

"Roscoe"

Yes Kodak just called and confirmed the order. She had spoke to "manufacturing' and it will take three weeks.

.....at first the lady on the other end of the phone at Kodak said it was not available. After I gave her the catalog numbers....like magic, it WAS available, shipped from Atlanta. I'm glad, I really dont want to alter my Cine A.

Well, you can still get it. 18 roll minimum order, special order. $20.50 per roll (100ft)

Yes, Ive been talking with him about the cameras. BUT, he's never shot with his! Sort of like having a good looking wife and not.................................

I just purchased a Kodak Cine A. Ive freed up the focus, which was frozen and reset the focus calibration. Its ready to shoot. A few questons....anyone out there working with this Ol gal? Im thinking of altering it to take single sprocket, since I intend to do a lot of shooting. Any tips?? thanks
