I guess that maybe now, what with the onset of summer, is the time to start thinking about those long winter evenings, and preparing ourselves for some enjoyable film watching, - rather than leaving it till the last minute.
Yes, I know - "If it wasn't for the 'last minute', nothing would ever get done"!
Therefore, having assessed my current situation, I am looking for the following empty reels, or spools, if you prefer.
1 x 600ft Super 8 automatic take-up spool. 1 x 1200ft super 8 automatic take-up spool (to suit Elmo ST1200-HD). 6 x 1200ft Super 8 ordinary feed spools with cans. 6 x 800ft Super 8 ordinary feed spools with cans.
Metal or plastic is fine! (Though I do like the plastic Taylor Reel ones, they're easy to attach labels to the blank side).
If anyone can help with this shopping list, I'd be eternally grateful, and in addition to the purchase price, I might even consider treating the lucky vendor to some light refreshment at the 50th!!!
Many thanks,
Dave.

Hi Jan,
That's actually about £30 actually, which actually works out at £6 per reel. I think that's nearly twice what I can get them for over here. As you say, the shipping makes it a bit uneconomical actually.
Thank you very much for your efforts though - greatly appreciated, but think I'll pass this time actually.
BTW, I think ACTUALLY is quite a good word, actually.
Best regards,
Dave.
