I have some 70mm gear for a Century projector. Rollers, pads, optical sound head, and a dry web cleaner.(christie) Is there any use for this stuff? I doubt I'll ever use them again, but I hate to just throw it all in the trash. Is there a resale market, or do I try to trade it away?

There are several collectors out there running 70. Try them. Brad has a couple of JJ's in his screening room

I'd say to make a list of everything and post it on the for sale forum. Odds are that cleaner will sell to someone willing to convert it to run 35mm or 16mm or 8mm.

While it's on my mind, Brad whould you be interested in a trade? I wouldn't mind exchanging the stuff for some Film Guard. kp

Per: The optical soundhead in a Century JJ 35mm/70mm projector is for the 35mm analog track. Of course, 70mm DTS timecode is also a form of "optical sound".------------------
