Hi all,

on rewind, my SSL-O is super slow once the take reel gets a little full. It is normal speed (Pretty fast upon starting to rewind) when I start rewinding but 30 seconds or so into it, it becomes super slow and takes forever. I have a show at Church tomorrow and have taken apart my other machine so really need any help I can get as I work before the show tomorrow and have no time to put it back together [Frown]

...

Best,

I am not sure what to tell you about the projector but take along some empty reels/spools and don't worry about rewinding on the projector during the show. Do it later on the rewind bench....do you have one?

I always rewind on the bench. I've always thought it kinder to film to control it manually and, at the same time find any places where damage has been missed or has newly occured.
