I haven't tried Kodak films with the RBT jig, but I have had trouble 
keeping Fuji chips on the jig as well.  I always hang the curl out of the 
film, so I tend to agree that the sprocket holes are too large, or the RBT 
pins are too small.  My solution is to use Wess tabs to hold the chips on 
the pin bar.  Their adhesive is so loose and gooey that they are easy to 
remove when the chips are firmly taped down.
