I always thought a magazine roller was a fire-roller assembley that's part of the old reel magazines. You're not still running with magazines on the projector are you? Well, I must be confused, I am just talking about the top and bottom rollers going to and from the platter. I have just always heard them called magazine rollers.  |  IP: Logged Erick Akers Arse Kicker Posts: 201 From: Dallas, TX, USA Registered: May 2001 posted 07-21-2004 05:16 PM                     Chris, If you or anyone in our local area, are looking for the best in replacement bearings at a great price, Check with: BearCo. 3220 Irving Blvd. 214-631-8701 15 years of dealing with them and never once did they fail to find exactly what I was looking for, including some really oddball stuff!!!

I've never heard them called magazine rollers before. Can someone else verify if that is the correct term?  |  IP: Logged John T.

Got to take a crap? How about just opening up the magazine to see how much time is left? Difficult?  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 07-21-2004 07:47 PM                     Not difficult, but if you go back and read jhawk's post, then Will's response, you'll get mine. Once dumb response deserves another, ya know.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-21-2004 09:36 PM                     Actually it would be interesting to see Jhawk survive in a booth with ernamann 8b magazines They don't accept bells (the shaft doesn't protrude and the door is what holds the reel on the spindle and in a darkened booth it is hard sometimes to see through the mesh  |  IP: Logged
