I hope one day you could make a video of How to bulk film on the loader because I have only seen one video that talk about bulk film loader. I think we need to see how to use one. Please

thanks for help us to learning

A+++++

one more thing Fixer is so you could bring it into the light.

@tigres162003 Thank you for your excellent "grade!" I'm afraid that I never bulk loaded film ever so I couldn't demonstrate it.

what is the purpose of the fixer? why is it needed after the stopbath?

[dgmfoto]

@videosrockmyworldmor Without fixer you're image would fade away.

@helloimtess Thank you!

That allot of chemicals.

I can see now where I use to go wrong with water spots ie I needed a wetting agent.

[CatspitProductions]

Or you can just dip the developed roll of film, still on developng reel into a distilled water rinse thus eliminating water spots and the need for extra chemicals other than developer, stop bath and fixer.

@CatspitProductions Sorry I disagree. Just because the water is distilled, doesn't mean it won't leave water spots.

[CatspitProductions]

@dgmfoto That's too bad because it works great and has worked for me for many years.

@CatspitProductions If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
