[Roman Sowa]

You can buy those things on Aliexpress, they are offered in banks for 
probably 10 or more stripes. Dirt cheap should I add

I have hot tweezers, which is very fast for taking them off/putting them on, but getting the new resistor out of a reel or bin in my parts box is clumsy and slow. Is there a feeder system that anyone knows of that is intended for hand rework, so that each resistor appears on the tape ready to be picked up? All this dropping and flipping them is making me crazy.
