Will there be ANY ELMO ST-1200 repairmen attending Cineasea this April 26-27 ??
I need the rewind fixed so it will at least rewind a 400 foot film reel . ( 1600 foot reel would be better )
I'm not looking for any " favors " or " freebies " and will pay .
PM me with an estimate or if you can repair it there .
Thanks ,
Dave

If anyone wants to pay for a 1st class airline seat and book a first class hotel room for me to come i will bring my repair manual screwdriver, hammer and chisel. Accepted? [Big Grin]

Tom,

I would also suggest a 16-5/16" Magnesium Worm Drive Circular Saw. That projector wouldn't stand a chance!

David,

Hopefully someone will be able to help you out.

Dave, I'll look at it when I come. I always bring my toolbox, belts and small parts box and keep it in my van. This is the original ST 1200?
