Have anyone had any experience building / adding a continuous loop device system to an ELMO ST-1200HD or GS-1200..?

Someone told me ELMO actually once made a continuous loop device system fitted for the ST-1200HD, but I have never seen one.

I have seen nice loop systems attached to 16mm projectors (EIKI´s), projecting in galleries - they have all been neat looking and hand-crafted very nicely, but never had any experience with adding this kind of systems to a super-8 projector.

Oh, wait - I once actually did, kind of.. in my old studio, adding a 3rd reel up in the high ceiling.. a dust collector par excellence [Mad]

Boerre, the Elmo loop device is called EF-400 (as in 400 ft of film...)
There's a picture at the end of the GS1200 instruction manual but I only have a xerox. Maybe another member could scan the picture for you...
