Elmo ST800 replacement LEAD BALANCE WEIGHT

... I don't see anything wrong with the one in the picture, is this a picture of the one that's broken?

I've never known a flywheel to be broken. Perhaps Charles could explain further.

Hi Charles,

That's a flywheel. Its job is to smooth the pulsating motion of the film from the claw at the gate so it can flow at a uniform speed over the sound head.

Does anyone know where I can get a replacement for the large round cast lead/metal weight? I received a projector with the weight broken. Part circled in red in photo.
