I really need to start scrolling down on this community! Too many posts are tacked to the top so I thought it was a dead community. Glad to see recent stuff here!
I've seen one of the Baby Brownies in a local antique shop, unfortunately it wasn't working so I didn't get it. It's cool to see you found a working one and had the ingenuity to load up a spool for it. I'm not quite there yet with my skills, but perhaps one day I'll be facing my own challenge with a 127 camera and you'll be the first place I go to to see how it's done. 😊

It was definitely a learning experience for me. Rolling the film onto the spool in a dark film changing bag was a nuisance, but something I could probably do again. In hindsight, I think the biggest issue with how the pictures turned out was that I did not use a flat film adapter in the back of the camera to prevent light splatter. The next time I do this (and I probably will, since I have other 127 format sized cameras) I'll probably 3d print that piece to help out.
