A splicing block for use in splicing tapes and the like comprises a rotating block in which a plurality of moveable tape guideways are disposed equidistant from and parallel to a shaft which is similarly positioned with regard to a fixed tape guideway. Rotation about the shaft, limited by a pair of fixed stops, alternately positions each of the movable guideways opposite the fixed guideway.

An automatic cassette stacking apparatus has first and second three-sided chutes connected to a stacker chute. A cassette to be stacked is moved through the first three-sided chute and can be stamped with a date. The cassette then moves through the second three-sided chute where it is selectively oriented. The cassette from the second chute is then placed on the bottom of a stack of cassettes in the stack chute.
