We were clearing out my grandmothers attic and found a bunch of 8mm equipment:

Eumig Mark 602 D Projector (No instructions) Made in Austria, working but bulb is gone and i can't find a manual to change it.

Sankyo super LXL 255 Macro (with instructions) The cradle for the batteries is broken so i haven't tested it, it seems to take a form of film cartridge that i have none of.

Elmo Zoom Auto-Eye 8SS with an Elmo Zoom Grip,(with instructions) Its wind up, has variable film speed.

Ohnar 8mm VU-Editor (with instructions) I think that that sprocket behind the prism cover is half seized up apart from that it works just as the manual says.

And finally a AGFA Splicer K, Made in Germany (with instructions) this dose work i used the instructions and performed a splice it went well till i used the 'Johnson Cinecol Film Cement' that is probably twice my age.

and information will be appreciated and any offers will be considered.

thanks a lot,

Jeff

I also have some unused film that should have been developed before 1970, i assume that i should just throw that out? but i will wait form someone to confirm that.
