Hi,

I've been given my dad in laws' old Eumig Mk8 along with a stock of family films. The only problem is that the film gate for the 8mm is damaged - I've looked on the inter web for spares but without luck.

Can anyone advise on possible suppliers of spares please??

Thanks in advance,

Dave,

I have spare gates for Eumig 807 (same as 810) if this helps you. Can you send a pic to my email and I'll match it?

John, thank you very much for trying to help but the parts aren't compatible with the Mark 8.

So if anyone else can help, the area circled is where the damage is, the thin metal forming the aperture has broken on the lines of some very small spot welds
