[MF3D.FORUM:989] Mounting tips?

[David Motz <david.motz@xxxxxxx>]

I just got my first batch of MF Spicer mounts today.  I'm wondering if
anyone could offer any hints on how to mount my Sputnik images.  I'm used
to mounting Realist format in Spicers using an RBT jig.  

Are there any tricks for aligning the chips to prevent rotational errors?
Or do you just eyeball it as best you can?  I was surprised by how much
smaller the mount opening is than the chip.  And how little cardboard
there is around the sides of the mount.  It looks like a lot of the image
will need to be cut away to allow for taping the mounts shut.  (I use
double sided tape for this.)

Are mounting gauges available for medium format?  Any tips I should be
aware of?

Thanks,

David
