[Frameworks] Elf 16mm projector
Hi Frameworks, I purchased an Elf projector some time ago and I discovered that it was missing some belts (two I think). Here is a link to some pictures: http://www.flickr.com/photos/73172807@N06/?uploaded=2magic_cookie=4bf21de9f77e9f1a52dbdb154e759a2b Can anyone tell me what belts I need to find/ where to get them. All the best and thanks in advance! Kevin ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
Re: [Frameworks] Elf 16mm projector
You're missing the round shutter pulley belt. The two grooves in the pulley is to switch film speed or 50/60 Hz. From the state of the main drive belt, I'd replace that as well. You mind as well replace all belts with a whole new set, including the feed and take-up. Where are you located? Richard Pattchetts has a large collection of new-old-stock Eiki belts. He is located in Michigan USA. http://www.16mmdirectory.org/search?q=patchetts Alain On Fri, May 18, 2012 at 4:09 AM, Kevin Timmins on-on...@hotmail.com wrote: Hi Frameworks, I purchased an Elf projector some time ago and I discovered that it was missing some belts (two I think).

Re: [Frameworks] Elf 16mm projector
It appears your projector needs five belts, but you should check the picture against your machine to verify. The eBay listing does not say anything about the main drive belt, which is the timing belt with teeth, the one you have is discolored and turning yellow-brown. Shutter/motor pulley Feed Take-up Rewind (this is on earlier machines, later model Elf/Eiki projectors do not have this, they use a clutch not a belt for rewind) Main drive belt (not listed in the eBay post). Ask the seller if he has the main drive belt. If not you can run yours until it falls off, but you would be better to replace them all at once.
