Hi Robert,

Freestyle Photo (5124 Sunset Blvd / (800) 292-6137) is probably your best bet. 
Happy hunting / emulsion making.


Good Luck,

often give late-model Steenbecks away, and they are much more usable.

Re: [Frameworks] 16mm Moviola for sale, Boston Area

2014-03-22 Thread Scott Dorsey
The Moviola flatbeds are not THAT hard to maintain, although sadly the 
company in NYC that had spare parts inventories tossed everything into 
a dumpster about five years ago.  Still, the electronics are all fairly
generic TTL stuff and there are few weird mechanical parts because the
controls are all-electronic.  The main worry is getting mag heads when
they wear out, and with a little machine shop work you can fit Nortronics
replacement heads in there.

That said, I spent $10 for my six-plate about ten years ago, and since
then I have seen several of them turn up at auction with no bidders at
any price.  I nearly bid on them just to save them from the scrapyard
but I already have a garage full of old film junk that I don't know what
to do with.
