Thanks, Todd — I’d love to see a picture. You can send it to me off-list if you’d like: c...@buffalo.edu… Am I understanding you correctly — on your set-up, there’s no lid for the three tanks?

I can take a photo of mine if you want to see how it works. I have the reel, loader and three nesting tanks. Not daylight tanks, just dip and dunk in a darkroom. I've never seen that lid part, but I suspect the tube is for an agitation crank.

I’ll definitely try loading some film. But I kinda would think there must be some other loading device because it’s really pretty heavy and unwieldy. Thanks for your insights, Scott and Jeff!
