I remember those raskels who shaved pads for the extra clearence
        they didn't have... and those who streched the tape to reduce
        its width in tight areas only to pay the price and be caught
        with TAPE CREEP.. God bless those vacumn frames..
        Quick shoot my job and mark the temp and humidity on
        the film!!. Does this make any sense KIDS?
        Thanks for those memories guys!!
