Seeing Brian's post elsewhere with regard to the Elmo ST800 dustcover made me wonder which Elmo Super 8 projectors had dustcovers, either supplied with the machines or maybe as optional extras. Apart from the one Brian has mentioned, the only ones I'm aware of are the GS dustcover and the hard case thet the ST1200 was supplied with.

I wish there was a hard case for the GS, although I wouldn't want one that adds a lot of weight, unless it has wheels!

I just got an Elmo ST-600D M&O last night and it came with a dust cover. Actually it looks like it'll fit an ST-800, too.

Jan, You must take some pics of the 600D M&O. I have never seen the optical version of the 600. I dont think they were ever sold in Europe.

Couldn't you just sew a dust cover for it? My sewing skills are darn poor but heck; I bet I'd easily make a dustcover for my new GS 800.
Or is it the "original" aspect...

Kevin, will do. [Smile]

It's amazing, this thing showed up on eBay and nobody, but nobody wanted it. Only me. Won it at the opening bid and made a steal. [Cool]

Pictures to come...
