romualdo Posted October 8, 2019 Share #1 Posted October 8, 2019 Advertisement (gone after registration) Not sure if this is the right place to make this query I just acquired a Watson 100 bulk film loader primarily for loading my IXMOO cartridges. Unfortunately it does not contain the grey plastic shim that sits on the inside of the crank handle - this is used for standard (non Leica) film cartridges. Even though I am now set up for the IXMOOs (you have to remove this shim to use the IXMOOs effectively) I would still like to fill standard/contemporary cartridges. Anyone out there with a spare shim or could someone give me the dimensions (including thickness & diameter of circle) as I could attempt to make one from cardboard or even a 3D printer job.

Pyrogallol Posted October 8, 2019 Share #2 Posted October 8, 2019 The spacer is about 2 mm thick and the hole 9 mm diameter. I don’t think the shape will make much difference, you could just use anything as a washer/spacer. Welcome, dear visitor!

Pyrogallol Posted October 8, 2019 Share #3 Posted October 8, 2019 If it was square it would be just under 3cm on each side. Welcome, dear visitor!

romualdo Posted October 8, 2019 Author Share #5 Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) Yes indeed!! I thought more about it after I posted this & considered trying washers - 2 washers looked just right then just spied your supportive post - many thanks for the dimensions - does the 2mm include the total thicknness (including the ring too) Edited October 8, 2019 by romualdo Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrogallol Posted October 8, 2019 Share #6 Posted October 8, 2019 No, just the main part of the spacer, the thicker ring goes on the outside edge and holds it in place. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
