Verify that everything looks OK, then finally hit scan and got eat a few sandwiches, because it can take a loooong time.

    The toothpicks go down, against the film. If it's 35mm film, and you can't get it to lay flat, you may need to lay the cardboard-and-toothpick jig on top of the film (but below the frame) to make sure the film is as flat as possible.
