Hi Scott,
The 35 pins on a 1635 splicer are always up, but from your photos, someone 
physically yanked them out of your splicer. The buttons are for raising and 
lowering the 16 pins.
-Sorry for the bad news,

Thankd Jeff, will try that. Any idea on how to 

align the two film strips without the pins? The 

16mm seems to be the only one on the right; there 

are two other holes on the left that might 

produce pins once it's unglued. Or are 35mm pros 

so expert they don't need pins?



thanks

Scott
