make two spacers so the 135 cassette doesn't move(i cut an empty film canister) and put it in the "new film place".if it fits, good, if doesnt, reroll to 120 spool(in a dark sack) pull the film to the takeup spool. close box. create a mask for the viewfinder.most likely the automatic advance wont work, so remember, 80% or so of a whole roll of the lever advances a frame.
I have the "luxury" of the 635 with the crappy focus screen that only have a 135 2:3 frameline inside of it (no grid, no nothing)
My main problem is that fact that the yashica takes a 12 frames plus front/back paper in exposure. So I either need to open-close the back mid-shooting or I need to cut strips that are ~120-film-long.
So you say that I should cut a 120 spool and stick it into a 135 spool?
What about the taking spool as well? Should I just prepare a taking canister of 135 and load it all into the camera on both sides at once? (that could be an easy way of doing redscale too)

Good stuff.
How do you mount 135 into the autocord?
