JB Earl Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 anybody know of an easy-ish way to get wire scrims for Strand/Quartzcolor instruments? I need 325mm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Daffarn Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Eurolight do them apparently - https://www.eurolight-system.com/index.php?id_product=4950&controller=product&id_lang=2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB Earl Posted July 1, 2020 Author Share Posted July 1, 2020 Thank you. I should have mentioned, I’m hoping to find a source in the US Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD Hartman Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 13.25" , are you certain? 13 and 13-1/2 are typical sizes. Which model Strand or QuartzColor? Scrims should be the same diameter as the barndoors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB Earl Posted July 16, 2020 Author Share Posted July 16, 2020 Thanks, i have lots of strand and quartzcolor lights to take standard scrims, but these are huge studio lights, so maybe that’s why. Of course they always list as metric sizes too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB Earl Posted July 16, 2020 Author Share Posted July 16, 2020 The barn doors are actually bigger because they ride in rotating bearings, different from every other fresnel I have ever seen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Conley Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Just curious, you have some photos of these lights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD Hartman Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 (edited) Is this a pole operated studio fixture? Probably not breaking news, but the Harry Box book lists the globe#, scrim size and other most fixtures, old and modern. If your measurements are correct, Matthews could probably make you a set.

JB Earl Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 (edited) I forgot I sent this on the truck just in case so I got a picture.

These are not a pole op fixture, but I think they come that way also because they are studio sized IYou can see the bright wheels that the barn door ring rotates in I should check the Box book either way, but I don’t see anywhere that a standard size scrim can fit -13 inches definitely wider than the slots behind the “wheels” Edited July 17, 2020 by JB Earl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
