Wow, just pulled mine out of long term storage. Been at least 20 years since I last looked at it. Have tapes of my 36 year old going to 1st grade. Just ordered a new belt on ebay. Mine was liquefied. Thanks for the video.

In Germany we had a lot of brands selling S8 projectors but only a few produced them themself. Porst for example is only buying stuff put their lable on and selling them so they were cheap and low quality products. I have two S8 projectors. 1. Is an Elmo K110-SM Dual-8 silent movie projector so it can do R-8 and S-8. 2. Is my Eumig S820 HQS S-8 sound projector for magnetic sound tracks. Eumig is an Austrian manufacturer which build projectors on their own and Elmo is a still existing japanese manufacturer. One difference to your take-up wheel is that all of mine has auto loading so the film will automatically taken by the wheel so no need to put the film manually on the tak-up wheel.

Thanks for the demonstration. So much easier than reading the instruction manual lol

Thanks for your video. I have no idea where I acquired this one, but I did. I'm having trouble loading it; the feed doesn't seem to move down through the projector, getting stuck and wrapped up on the very first loading sprocket. If I can figure that out, I think this will serve my purpose.

Very likely the rubber belt has disintegrated. Easy fix once you clean up the gunk it transformed into.

This may be a dumb question buuut, how would one go about getting the sound if the projector can't play it? I just snagged one of these thay appears possibly never used and just realizing through this video that there may not be a sound option

I own one of these purchased via ebay,Mine is rather beat up but still works well.Would love to find one in better condition for sale,at a good price.

Comment is 6 years old, but if you're still looking, the one I just picked up is in excellent condition with original box and manuals. Sounded cool at the time, but thinking maybe too much effort to hobby right now. That and the 4 kiddos I have aged 9 and under are not real impressed.

Can this take 400 foot reels?

That is already a 120m (400 ft.) wheel in the video
