I have a couple of Paterson reels and a couple of AP reels and I am struggling with the AP reels - they just wont feed smoothly! Anyone else have any problems?
The AP are easier to start due to that wide entry point but there after they snag every time and they are about to hit the bin. Last night I loaded four films; the Patersons went on in one and the APs snagged on both rolls several times. I am fairly sure that the corner of the leading edge of the film snags on the spokes. I have tried trimming the corners off the film with scissors and that does help a little but they are beginning to wind me up (see what I did there.......?)
Any other reels out there worth a try before I just order a couple more Patersons?
