Ken Hough was on this list some time back. Seems he had gone into
refurbishing old cameras.

Do you know Ken Hough? Worked for Miller and has some of the
Miller equip used to wind/rewind armatures. Stan

brake one of the units by actually slowing it down like the
prototype. No control system had that, it meant braking by
reversing the power feed--very carefully. I still miss Bob
Miller, I was fortunate to visit him and his facility several
times in the mid '60s. The closest thing to it in the modeling
world was the late John Allen, who used a car battery in his
control system to get similar results.
