Pecole Posted May 19, 2015 Share #1 Posted May 19, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) Yes, at one time, my Fontenelle collection counted 22 projectors... I finally gave up, due to the price asked for the construction of a new annex to my house. Among these "beasts" - and except for the Pradovit I used - my favorite was this huge, heavy, incredibly antique-looking and complicated (the contrary of "sophisticated") VIIIS. Its wooden fitted "box" contained everything, including a voltmeter, a rheostat, different focal lenses and slide/film strip changers... I called it my "steam" projector, because it was water-cooled and had a locomotive-like "chimney". I believe it is still somewhere in a garage corner. I'll have a look... Welcome, dear visitor!
