Re: [ARSCLIST] Reel-to-reel preservation supplies?

["Marie Azile O'Connell" <marie.oconnell@xxxxxxx>]

I agree with Steve, using enough leader should solve this, otherwise you are
back to the 10.5 reels.  I realise this seems like a waste for small reels but
if you feel safer with this then it is your only alternative.  That means you
will need to purchase 10.5 acid free boxes also.

Hope this helps

Cheers
Marie
