1a. If you are hiding a dollar bill, fold it long ways 2-3 times, or until it is the width of the film. Tape the folded bill to the film
1b. If you are hiding a small object, put a piece of tape on it as shown. Tape it on the inside of the white gear.
2. Replace the white gear as it was, rewinding any film with bills on it. Fit it so it looks like the picture
