It's easy to accidentally align it crooked when snapping it back together for 120 film. Loading film onto it is okay, but slow going. But, it does the one thing that I bought it for: enable me to use two rolls of 120 and ensure they don't overlap via the red tab. It's slow going to get the first roll all the way to the end of the reel. I find that I need to hold the edge in place while ratcheting the reel. But, it works. ## Frequently Bought Together - Darkroom Spiral Reel for AP Paterson Kaiser Film Developing Tank 120 127 135 Multi-Format Film Holder Camera Processing Accessories Kit - Paterson Universal tank and 2 reels-#115 - Darkroom Equipment eTone Film Changing Bag Camera Dedicated Film Developing Darkroom Zipper Bag Double Layer Load Photography 22X22.8'' Photography Accessories (M) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/153443391-darkroom-spiral-reel-for-ap-paterson-kaiser-film-developing-tank](https://www.desertcart.us/products/153443391-darkroom-spiral-reel-for-ap-paterson-kaiser-film-developing-tank) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-07*
