I keep going back to Patterson. I haven't loaded a reel in maybe ten years, but I could do it perfectly tomorrow, all day if it were a steel reel. The trick is to cup the film ever so slightly, and just start rolling the reel in your hand, keeping the cup. Try it in hte light a few times, and you'll be an expert. The steel ones don't get smelly and ugly like the plastic ones do. Regards, Sonny http://www.sonc.com Natchitoches, Louisiana Oldest continuous settlement in La Louisiane ?galit?, libert?, crawfish
