Use 16mm cans Chip. You can then get 2 reels in the one can and in most cases thats one complete feature.

Chip --

I've got some -- $2.50 per can. Email me if you want 'em...

(sts (at) Sigel (dot) net)

I've also got some odd super 8 reels available - tons of 400 ft reels & cans for 50 cents per reel (or can), and a few other sizes. I know I have at least 3 or 4 1600ft super 8 reels - $12 each. Not sure what else...

Steven, are these 1600ft. ones actual 1600ft. reels or of the 1200ft-with-small-core kind?

Are there real 1600ft super 8 reels? They wouldn't fit on the projector, would they??

I've got some blue plastic taylor reels (1200s w/ small core) and one or two Supaspool metal reels (not sure on the core size on those). If you're interested, I'll go dig them up.
(but email me directly - I don't check the forum too often -- sts (at) sigel (dot) net ).

You have mail! And no, true 1600-footers wouldn't fit on a projector unless that projector were mine. [Big Grin]
