Hi there,
got a delivery today from Momentcatchers of Fort Worth, Texas http://www.momentcatcherproductions.com/page6.html#8mmleader and thought others might like to check them out.
Although I'm UK based their postage is quite competitive and they sell leader and Presstape splices for 16mm, super 8 and standard 8 (for those of us who can't get our hands on a cheap CIR splicer).
I'll stop before I start sounding like an advert, but they're worth a look (especially if the Pound starts faring better against the Dollar),
John

I'll second that; they have all the "regular spare parts" and provide good service.
