Bring it all together



The inside of the matchbox inserted and then the old 35mm cartridge is turned (using a rod or ring pull) to take all the slack up and bring both films together on either side of the matchbox. Now use the PVC tape to seal up the gaps between the film cases and matchbox and then you are ready to take a picture.
When you are ready you need to have the shutter down and turn the empty canister till you hear 6 clicks then follow the below timings for ISO 100/200 film.

Outside, sunshine: 1 or 2 seconds

Outside, cloudy conditions: 5 seconds

Indoors, normal room lighting: 5 - 10 minutes


I have not yet taken any pictures (but will tomorrow) so will post how i got the film out and also the pictures i took.
