GREG MUELLER'S PRIVATE SCREENING ROOM

My homemade film transport. The fusion of two designs, the Cinemeccanica tower (for it's compact size), and the double Mutt (for it's electronic control abilities). The film is loaded on a reel at the top and pays out to the left. It goes through the projector and is taken up on the lower reel. A white roller can be seen riding on the film as it goes to the take up reel. This arm controls the speed at which the take up reel turns, using a variac. The film can be rewound by changing one belt and throwing one lever.
