If a plastic reel will fit your tank, look into Omega and Samigon reels - the "ears" where you load the film are like great big landing pads - night and day difference from my previous plastic reels (though those weren't patterson). If you want a steel reel for 35mm, nothing, NOTHING nothing beats a Hewes reel - the way the film attaches is genius.

White acrylic sheet. Shop around online and eBay, you can find it cut to all sorts of sizes, very affordable.
