Looking for any advice developing 16mm movie film in the Morse G3.

I should receive a Morse G3 developing tank in a couple of days for the purpose developing 100' reels of Plus-X negative movie film. I thought I'd squeeze everyone here for their experience and wisdom before I embark on this adventure. And advice that can save me from wasting gobs of film would surely be appreciated. I am assuming that everyone develops their movies at home these days. ;-)

Many Thanks in advance.

Without any specific advice, I suppose moral support would also be just as welcomed.

Anybody want to share their experiences developing B/W 16mm reversal film. As it applies to the tank, I believe the window on the side is designed for that purpose. I can already imagine this is going to be a nightmare. The wait is simply killing me.

I never tried it myself, there are other sites that show and talk how to do it. Google and you will find some. I also recall other folk here at APUG are also doing this and maybe a search of threads will find them. Eventually, they will find this thread.

In any case, I hope you keep us posted on your adventure.

Good Luck

Thanks fotch. See there, I'm feeling better about this already. I had scrounged around on the googlesphere quite a bit beforehand and didn't find anything specific. There is some chitchat on the site here, mixed in with a lot of chaff. I'm definitely going to keep at it. It seems that there was quite a bit of info at one time on web sites that no longer exist, geocities, etc.

I'm interested in this, too. Specifically I'm interested in ECN-II in a Morse style tank. It seems to me that the REM-JET will get all into the emulsion with the film wound up on the reel.

And as Cesaraugusta found, the googlesphere is kind of confusing.
