[Frameworks] help identifying this film tank

[todd eacrett]

There was a loader for these, a rather substantial device to hold the 
weight of the reel while winding the film on. I can take a photo of 
mine if you want to see how it works. 
 
I have the reel, loader and three nesting tanks. Not daylight tanks, 
just dip and dunk in a darkroom. I've never seen that lid part, but I 
suspect the tube is for an agitation crank.

       What I forgot to mention also was that the circle with the Nikor 
brand is raised slightly off the surface — for drainage? I’ll 
definitely try loading some film. But I kinda would think there must be 
some other loading device because it’s really pretty heavy and 
unwieldy. Thanks for your insights, Scott and Jeff!
