you gotta trim the plastic edges on the 120 roll and sand down a lil bit...or if you have 2 old 620 spools u can respool them like this

eugene i just broke my kodak that looks just like yours...if u need parts let me know. oh and i think i have an extra 620 spool. i'm getting into polaroids atm...i dunno it's pretty nifty. i'll post more pics of my cams
SWEET. :) yeah because i wanna try using this brownie atleast once. it looks fun. Oh also, I have 120 expired film at home if anyone is interested. Its in the fridge, and I won't be using it because its to expensive to develop.
