  9. tapes sometimes come a bit loose and you use a pencil or your finger to roll the tape reel back into the plastic cover.

    I remember doing that, but I'm not sure if I can remember actually needing to do that.

    ... er. Read the link, now I remember why. Yep, sure did. Ah, the foibles of older machinery...
     
  11. Yep definitely too young :p I was using CDs by grade 2 ahaha
     
  12. what are cds?
     
  13. Rollin rollin rollin.
     
  14. Wow this brings back from old times. Lost a lot of tapes because of over winding them :p
     
  15. cd or tape?
     
  16. Haha good memories
     
  17. Nope, it isn't. If you've never used audio cassettes you will never know the link between them.

    We used pens to rewind/forward the cassettes. It saved on battery power. I think it was also used when the film became loose and had to be rolled back into the cassette.

    Still obvious?
     
  18. Man I was young when I had to deal with those. I got the connection because I saw my parents doing that.

    I had my own way of doing this. Instead of having the tape still and rolling the pen in the hole, I would hold the pen still and make the whole tape rotate around it, all with one hand. Faster & More Fun.
    Did anyone else used to do that ?
