But what about the remains of the P&J sandwich you just ate clogging up the
baseplate mechanism? I guess you also use it to floss in that case also. ;

Naw that base plate is just like a knife of the olden day pirates who held
their weapon between their teeth! ;-)
If I'm working with the standard base plate and not Tom Abrahamsson's
RapidWinder and change film it's a piece of cake, no fuss no muss thing.
.
Heck it's base plate off, immediately between the teeth, film change and
base plate returned in nothig flat! :-) And trust me I've never lost one
nor
had to dig around looking for it in my bag or pockets. :-) And no I've
never swallowed one! ;-)
Now the RapidWinder? Naw it doesn't work between the teeth, but hard
pressed
I bet one could under extreme conditions. ;-) But Tom doesn't warranty
your
teeth! ;-)
