Author Topic: rig for big 16mm reels Webster Colcord Film Handler Posts: 23 From: Alameda, California Registered: Oct 2003 posted 01-22-2004 07:50 PM                        I do a yearly movie night at my son's gradeschool. Last year I did a changeover with two old Pageants. This year I got an arc Pageant off of ebay and two very large floating hub reels (thanks to one of these forums) and I'm trying to rig up a feature-length take-up system. I'm sure someone here has suggestions on how to do it? Anyone got pictures? Thanks in advance, Webster  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 01-22-2004 10:32 PM                    Was discussed HERE My system of long ago:  |  IP: Logged Webster Colcord Film Handler Posts: 23 From: Alameda, California Registered: Oct 2003 posted 01-23-2004 12:42 PM                        Thanks for pointing me to that thread!  |  IP: Logged Jeff Taylor Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 601 From: Chatham, NJ/East Hampton, NY Registered: Apr 2000 posted 01-23-2004 01:32 PM                     Damn. I actually had a factory built 6000' Eiki xenon and never used it with larger than 2300's. What a waste with all the effort you guys are going to to rube up one.  |  IP: Logged
