Christ, man, do you think I'm MADE of time? Scott wrote: "I'm guessing that the unidentified black box in the dungeon is the controller for a TransVerter motor-generator set. I think that the knob regulates motor RPM. Hopefully someone can confirm or deny this." Maybe a different type than I was used to, but didn't this control regulate the amount of feedback to the field coils of the generator, thus controlling its output?  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.

Now you'll have to find time to send in a picture too!  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 08-08-2003 06:47 AM                     If you'd like, we could change things a bit. How's this? 10 posts in 30 days with a picture = Sneak Level 1 (debuts new content for 30 days) 60 posts in 30 days without a picture plus at least one new submission (manual, picture tour, etc) per year for eligibility = Sneak Level 2 (debuts new content for 11 months) New additions are released to the lurking public after 1 year. Would that work? Should we disable the forum's "search" feature for all users without pictures too? Stop hiding! Take the hint! Send in your picture! (We'll like you better.)  |  IP: Logged Daryl C.

You forgot the first born child clause. Gotta have somebody around to vacuum / mop the booth floor.  |  IP: Logged Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony. Posts: 3686 From: Dallas, TX Registered: Nov 2000 posted 08-09-2003 04:23 AM                     Finally. It's about time I sent in pictures of my own theater. I thought I was never gonna get to see what it looks like. And when the heck am I gonna update that member photo? I bet I don't even look like that any more.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 08-09-2003 05:06 AM                        Here is your newest member pic, Adam: (I have no idea who this guy really is.

Brad must be getting really desperate, as they went live three hours after I uploaded them. Are Paul Thompson and I the only ones with booth photos to share?  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 08-09-2003 02:13 PM                     All these members working at all these theaters and yet so many don't bother to send in pictures to share with the world.  |  IP: Logged John Hawkinson Film God Posts: 2273 From: Cambridge, MA, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 08-17-2003 10:45 AM                     Brad, there's still no such thing as a 10-28 screw. It's likely a 10-32 screw (but might be a 10-24). --jhawk  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 08-17-2003 04:21 PM                     Alright John, I tried. I really did try, but I can't figure out what in the heck you are talking about.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 08-17-2003 05:59 PM                        On my Strong MUTs when the screw is in the down position, it rubs against the hub and makes breaking film down very troublesome and erratic. The screw must be removed completely unless it is being used for a split reel. These Strong MUTs were purchased brand new and are about 10 months old at the most.  |  IP: Logged Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony. Posts: 3686 From: Dallas, TX Registered: Nov 2000 posted 08-17-2003 06:28 PM                     Well, it's all crystal clear to me now, thanks to Joe. Brad must be a retard or something.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 08-17-2003 06:46 PM                        Now I'm confused.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 08-17-2003 07:28 PM                     Aha, John is talking about the Strong MUT/split reel tips page. (Note to John: tell us what in the #$@%*&%! you are talking about next time. )  |  IP: Logged
