College instructors all have differing ways of teaching and this seems to just be a way of having the students branch out and gain a variety of opinions in the photographic field. While you may seem to be annoyed that many students are posting on this forum it is a problem in what way? The students branching on to this site, whether it be assigned or personal, should not matter. If it affects your daily life so much than just do not read the student forums and keep your opinions to yourself. These are students pursuing a degree to reach a future and better themselves and they do not need negative response from someone that thinks they are entitled just because you may have more experience in the field. Your input and opinion is valid in your own sense but keep it to yourself and your mouth shut unless you plan to be proactive in helping the student learn and become better in this field.

Thank you all for the help. I am using it on 35mm black and white film. I may start practicing on the metal more so now due to the information because i seem to just not have any luck with the plastic reels and always seem to lose about my last 8 pictures because it never rolls fully

i have been having issues with rolling my film on to the plastic processing reel and was wondering if it is easier or if metal reels provide a better processing quality. Any help would be appreciated
