Author Topic: 35mm Make-Up Tables? Charlotte Kingsley Film Handler Posts: 2 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2011 posted 05-17-2011 07:34 PM                  Our organization is looking to buy a new make up table for our 35mm films, but we're having a lot of trouble online shopping. Any product/company/source recommendations? Thank you!  |  IP: Logged Robert E.

Both are full-line equipment dealers and should have the MUTs you are looking for.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 05-18-2011 02:20 PM                     Why not ask your regular service dealer The sale of equipment is part of what provides a service network  |  IP: Logged Per Hauberg Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 883 From: Malling, Denmark Registered: Jul 2000 posted 05-18-2011 02:46 PM                        Hear, hear ! Service Techs are pretty hard to find as mail order....  |  IP: Logged Charlotte Kingsley Film Handler Posts: 2 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2011 posted 05-18-2011 08:37 PM                  We don't have a regular service dealer--the equipment has been around longer than I have, and without any repairs.  |  IP: Logged Louis Bornwasser Film God Posts: 4441 From: prospect ky usa Registered: Mar 2005 posted 05-18-2011 09:49 PM                        I find it difficult to believe that IN CHICAGO, no one exists to help this man. Certainly every small cinema in Indiana has no problem spending money. Email me. Louis  |  IP: Logged Paul Mayer Oh get out of it Melvin, before it pulls you under! Posts: 3836 From: Albuquerque, NM Registered: Feb 2000 posted 05-18-2011 11:07 PM                        Also, lots and lots of used 35mm equipment is available out there due to the digital conversions going on. So hopefully Charlotte will link up with a local service tech company that might have links to local Chicago locations of bigger chains that are going through these conversions (I'm in Chicago myself this week, doing some of these conversions). Things like make up tables should be readily available at almost scrap metal prices.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 05-19-2011 08:31 AM                     You could contact James Bond at Full Aperature Systems in Chicago. He has lots of equipment...

Has MI6 gone under? I´ve always said that those beautiful Aston Martins were more than they could afford...  |  IP: Logged Jim Bedford Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 597 From: Telluride, CO, USA (733 mi.

Are they fast?  |  IP: Logged David E. Nedrow Master Film Handler Posts: 368 From: Columbus, OH, USA Registered: Oct 2008 posted 05-25-2011 12:50 PM                        Charlotte, We purchased a new Kelmar dual drive rewind/inspection bench last year. Having motors on both sides makes things so much nicer. And the easily changeable shafts are a plus, and they have a wide range of shaft types. Here's a link to Kelmar's Rewind/Inspection page.
