The manual table is really the best and most satisfying method of going through films to catalogue, inspect, repair, select, prepare for viewing or copying or projecting. Its film nearly at its most peaceful.

Ive got loops and stuff but my lens of choice to view strips of film are Bell&Howell 60mm lenses that you find on the 16mm projectors. The table area is a bit cluttered so I am going to make a shelf on the wall for reels, splicers, tape, etc.
