Hi Joe, I'd like to have it. Think I could figure out a power supply to make it work. Be glad to pay you for packing it up and shipping it.
Thank you

Need O'Connor model 30 for parts
in Cine Marketplace
Posted
Totally dismantled and cleaned a O'Connor model 30 fluid head this weekend for a total rebuild. It's amazing how many parts and the quality of the parts that are in this unit. I have new fluid for it and need to order a bunch of o-rings. This thing is really well built but the weak link in the head is the damping collars inside. Made of plastic and built in 2 pieces to surround a drum. The dampening fluid is between the collars and the drum, by adjusting the collars closer, the dampening goes up. Problem is that if tightened to much, the collars can break. Seems to be a problem with some of these as the older tech at O'Connor warned me about this happening. So I'm looking for a head that can be used for parts. Doesn't need to look pretty, banged up, corroded, etc. Parts I need are burried inside.
Thank You
