Shaffer Linear Processor

thingiverse

Hi, I'm Clyde, an NYC-based maker with a passion for film. Last year, when I started experimenting with movie cameras, I realized that processing film at home would give me a smoother creative flow than sending it away and waiting a week every time. My initial attempts using a five-gallon bucket and plastic planters as an improvised daylight tank showed promise but were inconsistent. That's when I began sketching out an automated processing solution made from easily obtainable parts on a small budget. After months of designing on paper, with the support of MONO NO AWARE, I built the Shaffer Linear Processor in under a week. Today, I'm releasing this design to the global film community for free, hoping it will help other artists turn their ideas into reality!
