Then the drum 'walks' off the roller - at least Jobo drums and
a Unicolor base.  I find I have to ****m the base so the drum
stays on top - or at the least to be sure it walks so the cap
end rubs up against the base.

I use the older style 4x5 Jobo reels (? clear spiral reels
holding 6 sheets each) and do not have streaking
problems when using them on a motor base (famous last words,
I know...).  Developer is usually Microdol-X and film is
usually TMax 100.
