Cool, yeah - I have a bunch of regular projectors but I need ones with synchro motors or 5 blades to prevent film roll when transferring. Manufacturer built or custom, either's fine.

Last year I got a big archive (maybe one of the largest around) of 1920s-40s porn flicks that hadn't seen the light of day since 1950, but have only transferred maybe 1/4 of them so far. I just wanted to finish them. The guy who usually sells me custom projectors sold me a couple that died permanently, conveniently after a reasonable refund period (as much as that's possible with old gear like this), I want to be done with it without continually throwing $$$ at the problem. Quality ones ain't cheap. There just aren't really many dudes with that skillset anymore.
