Re: [Frameworks] using a hot splicer

2016-10-10 Thread Caryn Cline
Thank you Scott, George and Dave for your helpful suggestions.  It turns
out that I can submit my negatives tape-spliced.  I will order some fresh
cement, too and practice my hot-splicing technique.

Thank you, Frameworks.  I'd be adrift without you.
