I've found some "clips" that hook into the perforations. I got them to rewash some old strips (6 long in my case) of negatives that were apparently "washed" by some idiot (me, 33 years ago). Since I haven't actually *done* it yet, I can't comment on how well it worked out. (Premier Film Hook, I paid $3/pair).
