The cost of shooting 110 today makes it prohibitive for many users. Unlike 35mm, no easy bulk spooling option exists. This video, however, shows how to make 110 film shooting far more affordable by re-spooling your film yourself.
110 film is the most expensive cassette film available. Per-shot it is more expensive than 35mm or 120. Per square millimeter it more expensive than any standard format except 5X7 and 8X10. A 110 C-41 cassette with 24 frames typically costs (in 2020, in the U.S.) around $14 with development and scanning up to $25. That's around $40 for 24 frames or $1.67 per frame (about a penny per square millimeter on each negative.)
By slicing 35mm film to 16mm and spooling a double length onto your 110 cassettes you can dramatically reduce your film costs. Even if you use film which has the same cost as your 110, the additional frames on each roll with the method shown in this video cut your per-frame cost by about half. If you use bulk film, your per-frame costs will drop to about 25%. If you develop at home, your per-frame costs will be about 10% of what they are today with 110 film.
The method outlined in this videos requires the photographer to pay some attention to the camera. Because we will cover the frame count window in the 110 cartridge the camera has to be used consciously. Also, if you camera requires the 110 sprocket holes, this method will not work for you.
Here is a link to the film slicer that I use in this video:

I'm not affiliated with the shop. I just like Joe's products.
If you don't want to use a film slicer, 16mm film work in 110 cameras with this method, too, but you will have 16mm film sprocket holes in your images.
