mess in the first place.
I'm now going to try using an idiot template. I have a feeling no more
messes.
My leaders will no longer possess my inimitable personality; only to be
snipped off in the end.

Mark, I've got a template from the 1950s and a sharp pocket knife that
will do a much better job. It's a Leica knock-off, but works just fine.
I, too, have seen film chips in my Barnacks, but have always been able
to fish them out.
