My guess is the damage is coming from the shuttle. Try to run film until there 
is damage and before I threading it mark all points of the film path on the 
film with a Sharpie.  The Oxberry and Acme shuttles are very precise. Make sure 
your film is the right pitch (.1866 with BH perfs, probably). 

Unless you have one of those weird Oxberrys made for still film recorders.  
These had small square mags and are designed for still camera film. 

What kind of film recorder is it?
