I have tried few times to repair the ripped sprockets on the film. Transparent tape doesnt have sprocket holes and i ran out of press tapes. Do any one have ideas to how repair this? It is frustrating. [Embarrassed]

Well, the most obvious solution in my mind would be to buy more press tapes. They are readily available in many places.

If you have a 16mm guillotine splicer that has the tape you pull across then it makes its own holes that would work other wise i have a whole box of 8mm preestapes if you want to buy some?

I believe i should find a gullotine splicers, it would been cheaper and easier instead buying a pack of press tapes.
