Universal
TES Depot
Scope
SRD/DTS/SDDS
8 Reels
Most reels are short. R2 ends in black, if a splice is necessary, count 24 frames from the changeover cues (obviously).
Head on R1 has soundtrack damage from negative splicing (most likely), so cut at the last neg. splice before the green band if you preserve the green bands.

Hah, wouldn't that tidbit about 24 frames from cues have been nice to know before i built the darn thing...
I wasn't precisely on what you did, maybe a frame or two either way - they just had to make it difficult to tell where that reel ended... but in my training the 24 frames from cues was overlooked, apparently...
why isn't there a well defined 'splice point'? An arrow, a thick green line to take some of the mystery out of the hidden reel end.
