Hi all,

I am keen to get this kit and looking for 4 more person to join me to save on shipping cost.

For more info about this product, please click here:
Hewes Student Film Processing Kit | Freestyle Photographic Supplies

This Hewes Student Film Processing Kit contains the below:
16 oz. stainless steel tank x 1
Hewes 35mm developing reels x 2
25 negative Print File storage pages that hold seven strips of five 35mm negatives x 1

Cost breakdown:
(USD 54.99 x 5 + USD 65.40 (Shipping by FedEx International Premium) ) / 5 pax = USD 68 per person (approximately SGD 88 due to rates fluctuation)

Let me know if you are keen!

:)
 

my bad! i forget that 5 person will exceed SGD 400.

Sorry... this MO changed to 4 person... so I need 3 more person who is keen to buy this kit with me.

ost breakdown:
(USD 54.99 x 4 + USD 63.17 (Shipping by FedEx International Premium) ) / 4 pax = USD 70.80 per person (approximately SGD 92 due to rates fluctuation)
 

Why not get the AP tank (2x 35mm or 1x 120) for $35 and a set of 25 35mm storage sleeves at $11 from Chiif? You could add in the storage file for $20 and still be cheaper than Freestyle.

A little note for newbies, steel reel are not easy to load compared to the paterson reel....
 

hi sinned79

u can call seng cheong @ 6336 3244 to check if they have steel ones?
 

Hewes reel is very easy to use. Not sure if seng cheong carries hewes brand.

hmm dats not what i read though.... film tends to stick to plastic reel more easily when its wet?

Erm the question is, do u reel them when its wet or dry? Once reeled in, you shouldnt have any issue..:)

I think a little practise is needed afterall..
Unlike the pastic reel, u need to curl de film a little (forming a u shape, becos de reel size is zlightly smaller than de film) when u reel n followed by pulling de film to straighten it so that it fit nicely into the metal reel..

Do correct me if im wrong..

oh i mean when you "unreel" the film to hang up and dry...
 

I'm currently on my hewes reels.... it gets easier after a few practices.... definitely a must get. Sinned, are you still carrying on with the MO?
