That 110 film made horrible blow ups because of how small the negatives were. Amazing what the public will fall for and amazing table you’ve made. I love the green advance arrows.
So howt 🔥 🤓 Envied the coffee table 👣, X-peshly þ camera 📷 it fits into hehehe 😂👍 You have a witty 🤏😊 bit of humor built throughout this episode, Very Craфty ¹⁰☆'s 🌞
Wesley, great piece of nostalgia. I remember having such a camera and waiting a week for 24 pictures . And.... I love your trampstamp-necktattoo, made me smile
My first camera was a 110 Kodak Instamatic. Great camera. I still remember the excitement of going to the camera shop to collect my photos a week after giving them the film to develop.
I’ve used layers of ‘wiggle board’ to get nice curves. It probably has many other names but it comes in 4x8 sheets that are about 1/4 inch thick. It’s almost like Luan but more bendy
as a vintage film camera user & analog photography enthusiast, i wholly approve of this build. remember those tall disposable flash bars you could stick on the top of the 110 cameras? as if they didnt look ridiculous enough already. haha. excellent work! p.s., your jokes were on point, i laughed out loud several times. thank you sir!
Glad to know I'm not the only one who remembers those flash bars. I was recollecting my aunt's old 110 at a recent family gathering and I was the only one who remembered that detail. They all remembered the "newer" strobe tube style & thought I was nuts!
The sign you made with Jimmy D introduced me to you and your particular brand of humour. F the haters I say, your jokes are great and your skill level is insane to watch. You teach, without being preachy which I like alot. Thanks for all that you do and jeep em coming sir.
Growing up in the ‘80s, I would take our 110 Vivitar on school trips. That’s the only time I was allowed to take mom’s camera. Great build, and thanks for the memories. ❤
Wesley, you're on camera persona is great. Don't let those who criticize your humor get to you. Your projects are quite interesting, unique, fun to watch and you do great work. Those who don't appreciate that should be watching more boring people than yourself.
The take up spool had a "cone" or tapered hub, because a little bit of pressure will hold a taper easily. That way they didn't need to make a more complex mold that had some sort of key. It also made the 110 cartridge easy to load, because you could just drop it in, and there was nothing to align. If you look at a 35mm film magazine, there are either tabs, or a full strip across the center of the spool hub. On a 35mm magazine you had to move the slot on rewind handle until the rewind handle engaged. The 126 cartridge had 4 keys that would engage the take up mechanism, but the 126 cameras were much taller than the 110s. The tapered hum was just a good way to save even more space, and make the camera a bit smaller. For those of us who did darkroom work in that time period, both the 110, and the 126 were a real pain to get into. I didn't work in a lab, and did piecemeal work for people so I didn't see many customers who had the smaller formats. I'm sure the larger labs had some sort of device to actually open them easily, that didn't involve trying to break them in half.
The cone didn't have utility for the consumer, cameras didn't engage with it. The film was advanced by a gear under the bump on the opposite side. The cone was for the lab, which did have to destroy the outer shell to gain access to it. I also didn't work in lab for consumer formats (though did in a offset print shop, processing those film plates) but I knew someone who did and I asked because I was curious about that and the later 35mm disposables.
One of the reasons I enjoy your videos as much as I do is the combination of dry humour with amazing amounts of creativity and skill. Come to think of it, you make me sick. Looking forward to the next one!
The neck tattoo sealed the deal…subscribed ….yes im aware it was added in post….and THAT is why i subscribed….among other reasons, but that level of quick detail is what clenched it….nice work Wes
Now that is some serious nostalgia. My grandfather took so many pictures on trips with his 110 camera. Some of them were even good. I'm pretty sure I still have mine somewhere around here. Who remembers having to send the film out in the mail to get it developed? Having to wait 4-6 weeks to get your prints back, only to find that easily a third of them were blurry, over-exposed, the roll wasn't advanced so the pic was half shot, or otherwise just no good. Ah, good times. Super fun project! Sure to host many a fancy dinner. Thanks for sharing!
We got ours developed at EcKerd Drugs. The week wait sucked. But looking at the pictures on the ride home (parents driving of course) was fun. I remember when the instant photo huts hit our little section of the world, boy was that a wonder that you could come back and get your pictures in an hour!
Even though I used the 110 format personal, I used more the 35mm format in the 80s. This build is amazing, brings back a lot of memorize. Thanks for the tip on the xcarve pro. Excellent work as always
Ahhh yes... The good old Kodak 110 cartridge. I remember paying to have someone at Walgreens screw up all of my pictures back when the Atari 5200 and Jaguar consoles were still new LOL!
Seeing the film canister again brought back some memories from way back. I remembered my first camera from around 1986. I’d would have been five years old. The dimensions of that camera were so lovely. Roughly 1.25 x 2.5 x 6. Not many things come in that size that I can think of now. Pump up the jams. Ha.
You're gonna have the coolest place in the county, i can't wait to catch up with the other furniture you've built, don't forget that beanbag and the lava lamp, very cool 😎
I remember my mom having a camera that had similar film in it. It was a relatively small camera that could fir in your pocket or fanny pack and whenever we went somewhere were you weren't allowed to bring a camera (like museums and tourist traps on road trips) she would just sneak that in and still get great shots. We used that camera for decades until the digital age came and those films were really hard to get in the late 90s. She still has it, it still works including the flasher but now it just sits on the shelf. Good times ... great build by the way, quality work as always!
It's probably cone-shaped because then they don't need anything fancy or tight tolerance to wind it up and have a tight fit. They just have another truncated cone, and it'll always mate up at some point. Basically how things like mill tapers work.
Yep, a teenager that was the film I used. Great idea and execution. I noticed the DP Ice sign in the background. I nice project would be something with the original logo. 😊
Your builds are so inspiring and your editing and filming is equally impressive , also enjoyed seeing the Seinfeld easter egg , episode 59 called the Implant , they are real and they are spectacular ..
The blunt scissor comment...man took me back to the 70's when i was a kid....plus...it took me to my 40's to realize its 10 times harder to cut with those blunt scissors left handed.😂😂
Genuinely can't understand the haters. I find you hilarious, please never stop. The purpose of the cone in the cartridge is probably twofold: cone-shaped parts release from injection molds easier, and the conical bearing surface ensures that there's no play in the spool's position. If the axis for the spool was straight, the tolerances would need to be much tighter, making the whole cartridge more expensive to produce, and therefore more expensive for the customer to purchase. Little efficiencies in design go a long way.
Wesley, you have officially jumped the shark with this build. But in a good way. Much cooler than The Fonz. I only wish there was a way to incorporate funny old Instamatic photos into the build.
Get a sheet of toughened glass to put on top and make the surface larger and more practical. Fabulous 'outsized' object I love them. did you enjoy Land of the Giants as a kid?
Speaking of "ask your grandparents"-- your Black & Decker Workmate reminded me of how ubiquitous the commercials for those were back forty years ago. I bought mine within just the last twenty years, but it was still because of those commercials from back when I was a kid. And DANG that joke was dark. You know the one.
Love it! I took so many pictures on a 110 camera growing up. there are two things i think you could have added. First is some hidden storage in the end without the spool. Second is a way to "advance" the film. It would be neat to see the arrows be replaced by numbers as you opened and closed the drawer. Some sort of rotating belt system that cycles through a couple numbers then back to the arrows. Yes that's a lot more work for just a sight gag but.... You could do it.
Awesome build! Did you consider using black Formica sheets? It's cheap, extremely durable and gives the table a realistic plastic look. It also saves you money by using lower cost, non-furniture grade plywood.
It may have been mentioned previously, but film photography project and lomography are still selling 110 film just in case that nostalgia hits overdrive! Also just moved back to DFW and I think I remember you having worked in the area at least in the past. Hopefully I can see some of your installations around town.
The spole is cone shaped to be able to fit the cassette in the camera. Much easier to fit a cone in a funnel than a tube in a tube. There were several different variations on film cassettes, but this and the polaroid are most common, except the regular film roll. Cool project, size up everyday items and put in your home is a true icebreaker..
Your humour is a big part of why your channel works. :)
Let’s see how this develops.
That 45deg table saw cut through the kerf bend cuts was soooooo satisfying.
That came out awesome! Now you need a platform bed in the shape of an 8-track tape!
17:38 Dat tat! :)
Fantastic build Wesley! As always!
took way to long to find someone that commented on it!
“…I just want to feel something.” Oof, that was dark. 😂
Ladies! He's single, he's handy, he's creative, AND he has a coffee table shaped like something you vaguely remember existing!
He's single you say. 🤔👍😉
That 110 film made horrible blow ups because of how small the negatives were. Amazing what the public will fall for and amazing table you’ve made. I love the green advance arrows.
You've given this enough exposure on instagram. Quite a lot of us watching how it developed whilst you filmed it.
Somebody had to!
That's a lot of photo refs in one sentence!
This was my Mom's go to camera for our birthday's and Christmas. Another great build!
Omg that neck tat got me 😂 Great project too
For the record: making + dad jokes = best videos on RUclips. Keep up the jokes, sir.
So howt 🔥 🤓

“Hey Brad - you really nailed that project!”
Thanks, Wesley, this was a Treat!
Oh man, I remember having a TMNT camera that took one of those cartridges. It would imprint the TMNT logo on the bottom of pictures.
Fine job! The drawer is great! A good lookin’ guy like you probably won’t be alone for long…unless you want to be. You brung it up.
Please don’t ever stop telling your jokes! 😂😂 Great build.
I like the humour. The jam joke was pure magic.
I love the little Easter eggs you put in the videos! Great job on another fun project.
Episode 59 was called the Implant , they are real and they are spectacular . Seinfeld never gets old
I had to go back to see who was in the steamer. hahahaha
@@95ffd I went back to read the tattoo. Lmao 🤣
My first camera was a 110 Kodak Instamatic. Great camera. I still remember the excitement of going to the camera shop to collect my photos a week after giving them the film to develop.
This is so cool! Just need some 35mm ‘lamps’ to go with it!

I enjoyed the video, thank you for exposing me to 110 film. Before today I wasn't aware it existed.
Awesome build. If I wasn't already working on a chessboard coffee table, I'd build this one. And I'm good with the jokes, keep them coming.
It's probably cone-shaped because then they don't need anything fancy or tight tolerance to wind it up and have a tight fit. They just have another truncated cone, and it'll always mate up at some point. Basically how things like mill tapers work.
I Grew up in the 70s and I Remember 110 film ,,and that flat camera ,,some times i'd use those ice cubes flash bulbs ..Great video . 😂
Love your new neck tat! You should really do a disc camera film dining table next to keep your 110 coffee table clean.
Definitely one of a kind , never disappointed in the creativity of Wesley’s projects.
Super cool and amazing build as always!
And don't stop being funny 😅
This was delightful! Also, I know what goes in that drawer - assorted lengths of wire!
I totally missed the hidden drawer! Great job.
Now I feel the urge to make a table like the Kodak Disc film.
Love the subtle subscription reminder ❤
Very cool!!! brings back some cool memories Now i need to wood carve me one!!!
That turned out really cool .
Lol, the subscribe neck tattoo!
You really do come up with some cool ideas for stuff to build. Enjoyed watching the project, thanks!
Love it! Fantastic build, Wesley!
Amazing! What a great idea.
Yep, a teenager that was the film I used. Great idea and execution.

Don't know if you know, but interestingly enough a few weeks back (2024) Lomography released a NEW 110 film camera!
Wow looks great and brings back so many memories from the 80s and having a camera like that lol cool idea

Don’t be ashamed of the Dad humor, you had me rolling when you said “Table, meet Brad”
Awesome build BTW. I'd definitely own that.
Great build. As someone who still uses 110 film I loved this.

Very cool construction - just ever so slightly disappointed the spool doesn't rotate 😉
Very cool. (Annnd yes, I remember those little cartridges well. The cone was for easy alignment I presume. )
+1 for construction paper (jokes!). Also, that blunt scissors bit had me laughing my brains out!
As expected..... Awesome 📸🥃 👍 😊
brilliant. nuff said. brilliant
That turned out awesome!! I still have one of those cameras running around here somewhere...
Well done! The attention to detail is amazing.
Such a bloody good idea and execution! also dig ya jokes and nice tat!
