Does anybody know the part number to the roller that goes on this bracket, <for use with arms that don't have rollers>; or happen to have one lying around? This part is not shown in the manual for the Mod 7 soundhead.
I am told this bracket was used for the Pro35's on VIP bases; which this projector was mounted on before I bought it. [Confused]

Danny, if you are going to be using a cue detector, chances are you don't have to worry about that hole. If not, there might be ways to fabricate something very easily as a guide roller and shaft to fit that hole. I think Kelmar makes one, and if I recall correctly, so does Strong International.

Thanks Paul, I'll look in that direction if this final plea yeilds no results.

Now that everyone has returned from Showest I'm hoping someone can help me. Any dealers or Strong representatives know what I need?

[Eek!]

Danny, I have one sitting in the front seat of my car. However, the roller needs to be replaced. If you need it, I'll send it to you.

Paul, you're a kind soul! I don't care what Joe says, anybody who likes weenies so much can't be all bad.
