One of my assistants just stopped by to pick up some film to splice. She said to stop complaining (as usual she is correct) and get her a dual 8mm film viewer/editor. So does anyone have such an item with directions? I see several on ebay @ goko p-65, sears 9381, baia 120 and a 170. any suggestions? Or do I just pick one. Thanks for past help.

I have a BAIA. I like it alot, but the only hitch is that when the bulb needs replacing I have to send the whole lamp assembly (which is quite small) out to have a new bulb re-soldered to the base. It's not expensive, but I don't know how long the service will be available. Other than that it works fine.

Hi Brad: Thanks for the reply. Just bought a baia ediviewer dual 8mm off ebay for a good price. I'm pretty good at repairing electronics(50 years exp.) so the bulb should not be a problem. Thanks again for the info. It came at just the right time. [Smile]
