  1. Martin , Always great to have your input , The Fuji carts are the best , if you can still find them ? As for Jenny + Frank , I am very thankful .
  2. don't know this particular project or cartridge but I think this thread is a good example of how people expect too much from the home 3D printing technology, trying to use it for purposes which would have better end results if entirely different technology would be chosen. This post is not about home 3d printing , It's about 3D Printable Cartridge To Fit Fuji Single 8 Cameras , Sure the Fuji Cartridges are way better , Yet this day & age it's now become harder to find , All Jenny List has done is to help keep the format alive for free & not asking for them $$$$$$$ , AS is clearly pointed out . The photographic world is full of profiteers, and if that's you I have something to say to you. It costs well under 20 dollars to get these cartridges printed commercially, less if you produce them in quantity, so I think 30 dollars is a maximum fair price to sell them for. I made this model as a free gift to the community under an open source licence,
  3. I have check all my 3D carts with old film , Once you get use to loading the film it's very easy , Will try soon with real Film.
  4. My 3D cartridges are working fine , Just give's me more space in which to play around with + Choice in a DIY way to load other kinds of film .
  5. Maybe , But try finding 2nd hand carts ? , This just open the market for DIY , Which can only be a good thing Jenny 's video .
  6. Just to let you know there is now a A 3D Printable Cartridge To Fit Fuji Single 8 Cameras , To help keep film cost down & reload your own films , Big Thank you to Jenny & Frank . . Words from Jenny . This cartridge model is open-source, that means I have made my design freely available for the Single 8 community to print and use their own cartridges. The licence I have chosen is strongly reciprocal, this means that if you modify the design you must also release it as open source. If you distribute it or cartridges made from it you must also distribute the URL of this repository. You can sell these cartridges, but if you do so I have something to say. The photographic world is full of profiteers, and if that's you I have something to say to you. It costs well under 20 dollars to get these cartridges printed commercially, less if you produce them in quantity, so I think 30 dollars is a maximum fair price to sell them for. I made this model as a free gift to the community under an open source licence, because I earn my money as a technical journalist. If I catch anyone selling these cartridges for silly money I promise this: I will make sure the world and dog knows about it, and I will undercut you. Try adding value by loading your cartridges with film, but even then don't take the piss. https://github.com/JennyList/Single-8-cartridge?tab=readme-ov-file
