This is my latest project. When I got this it was a mess. I had to steel wool all the bare metal parts that were oxidized. Plus there was no take up spindle so I fabricated one and added 2 pulleys and a belt for power transfer. I used a flat iron cord for power. It works! Thanks to Janice Glesser I have a short film to run on it. It even has a variable speed control.....your hand! [Big Grin]

Does anybody have an idea what it is worth. I did research it and found they were made around 1930's. All of the ones I found were in very poor condition. I managed to clean up the original paint and just touch up a bit.

Looks good and glad the reel fits. I see I forgot to remove the number label on it:)
