Author Topic: Advice. Geralyn Sniatkowski Film Handler Posts: 2 From: WEST DOVER, VT, USA Registered: Nov 2005 posted 11-24-2005 07:34 PM                 Hello. My wife and I brought a small movie theater 6 months ago and have just got a hand on the basics. If you would be so kind, we would love to ask few questions we REALLY need the answers for. The Projectors are Century "C" and "CC"'s with Lumex and Super Lumex which houses the bulb (Did I get those two backwards? We went into this knowing NOTHING, but are learning up to a point). I see the obvious ports to oil, but are we missing any and how often should this be done? Also can we dust the screens? Can we use swiffers and if not, what is the best way to dust them? Finally the digital sound unit is a Sony DCP1000, can you get parts for this and if so, is it worth fixing? Thank you for any help you can give us.

Some advice, you better fix that thread title pronto before this thread gets deleted!  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 11-24-2005 10:32 PM                     Suggestion: change your topic to "Questions of operations from new theatre owners", or similar - have to be specific with your topic instead of having us "guess" what your topic is about. ---TEXT DELETED--- [ 11-26-2005, 09:58 PM: Message edited by: Brad Miller ]  |  IP: Logged Frank Angel Film God Posts: 5305 From: Brooklyn NY USA Registered: Dec 1999 posted 11-25-2005 12:38 AM                        ---TEXT DELETED--- [ 11-26-2005, 09:58 PM: Message edited by: Brad Miller ]  |  IP: Logged Louis Bornwasser Film God Posts: 4441 From: prospect ky usa Registered: Mar 2005 posted 11-25-2005 08:36 AM                        ---TEXT DELETED--- [ 11-26-2005, 09:59 PM: Message edited by: Brad Miller ]  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-25-2005 08:52 AM                     ---TEXT DELETED--- [ 11-26-2005, 09:59 PM: Message edited by: Brad Miller ]  |  IP: Logged Geralyn Sniatkowski Film Handler Posts: 2 From: WEST DOVER, VT, USA Registered: Nov 2005 posted 11-26-2005 04:10 PM                 ---TEXT DELETED--- [ 11-26-2005, 09:59 PM: Message edited by: Brad Miller ]  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-26-2005 06:09 PM                     ---TEXT DELETED--- [ 11-26-2005, 09:59 PM: Message edited by: Brad Miller ]  |  IP: Logged Frank Dubrois Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 896 From: Cleveland, OH Registered: Mar 2005 posted 11-26-2005 07:07 PM                    I'm surprised the topic hasnt been changed or the thread closed.  |  IP: Logged Scott Norwood Film God Posts: 8146 From: Boston, MA.

Some more advice for you Geralyn, pay attention to what people tell you. Don't just ignore them (like you did so well with the warnings of the rule enforcement here).  |  IP: Logged
