P3D Re: Mounting details for RBT mounts

Paul,

    I just got back from Alaska with 39 rolls of exposed film
    3D film.  That's potentially 585 pairs to mount.  To to say
    that I am interested in this subject is a bit of an 
    understatement! :-)

    I am curious what technique you (and others) use for flattening
    the film.  I was just going to hang each strip with a light weight
    on the end until I was ready to start cutting and mounting.

    As for the batch processing technique, I think you make several
    convincing arguments for that approach.  I would like to know
    how you organized and store the cut chips so that they do not 
    get scratched while waiting to be mounted.

    I'm waiting with baited (ooops! I mean) bated breath.  :-)

                                                Later....BC
