I have JOBO reels.  With these reels, I find it best to PUSH the film into
the spiral.  At first I thiught this would not work at all, but after some
tries, I find that grabbing the film in shor ( 1-3 inch) steps and pushing
iti intot he spiral really does work.  You should try this with dummy film
first as you may not get the ssame results.

BTW, I use Tmax100 and HP5+ as films.. Base thickness can be a big
differentiator.
