Don H Marks Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 I purchased an 18-5 auto loading Bolex projector on ebay but it got lost in the mail. Maybe it will turn up some time but I did get a refund. There was a missing name-plate on the projector I purchased, so I purchased a second non-auto loading Bolex 18-5 just for the name plate ($13). Well, only the parts projector showed up. So, I decided to try and see if the 'parts' projector works, and if not, repair it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don H Marks Posted May 19 Author Share Posted May 19 For some reason I can't post the rest of the images of the repair. It only allows thumbnails. "Max total size: 26.46kb" I'll try again later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Simon Wyss Posted May 19 Premium Member Share Posted May 19 You wrote Dual. There’s no Dual 18-5 projector. The first model, 18-5, is for 8-mm. film, the second model 18-5 L is for Super-8 and Single-8 film. Just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is my designator for those not familiar with the Bolex line of projectors. I'll have them change it. Edited May 19 by Don H Marks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
