Many years ago, I published a process for mounting film chips in slide mounts. It involved a lot of fiddling with temporary bits of tape, and scraps of plastic to protect the film from fingerprints. I’ve replaced all of that by using a long, thin piece of clear plastic to help me manipulate the film. My mounting work now requires less time, and I make fewer mistakes.<\/p>\n

The first step is, of course, choosing an image and snipping the pair from the strip of film. As they come from the camera, the pair can be cross-eyed viewed. We must swap them left <-> right for normal viewing. The sticky part is getting them swapped left for right, while also flipping them front to back (because we will be taping our film face down into the smaller, front openings of the mount).<\/p>\n\n\t\t
