Projector Repair?

[Fazon]

I unpacked my Elmo ST-1200HD super-8 projector last night only to find that it had died while in storage. Can anyone recommend someone who is reputable that still services this equipment? I contacted Elmo directly and they don't even recall ever manufacturing Super-8 equipment! Any advice that you can give will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
Dean

Others may suggest a guy named Irv Higdon but I warn you to stay away from him.

BTW, nice to see that someone else interested in Super 8 exists in Connecticut [img]cool.gif[/img]

Dear Cameraguy,

Thanks for the info! Just a couple of questions; when you describe him as an "Elmo repairman" does that mean he actually worked for Elmo at one point? Just curious. What are his prices like? I think that my projector needs beltwork and a cleaning.

I'll be give him a call this weekend. I will be very happy to have this projector up and running again. It was like finding out that an old friend had died when I turned it on only to have it start making a grinding sound.

Thanks again.

Peace,
Dean

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Not sure if he officially worked for Elmo but he is highly recommended by many. I never used him directly myself BUT I did buy a ST-1200HD a few years ago on ebay and before it was sent to me it went to him for a check up. It was like new inside and out with new belts etc...
