Hollywood Film Company Multi-Format Film Rewinds w/Thumbscrew Clamps

Description

2 Hollywood Film Company Rewinds - One with Tension Screw & Set of Thumbscrew Clamps for use with 16/35/8/Super8 with Adapter (Not Included.)
These are Multiformat Rewinds with Thumbscrew Clamps for 16/35/8/Super 8 w/adapter - not included.  They have the round shaft with deep groove..
On the feed rewind (Left if you are right handed) a Tension Screw for control.  Now on the take-up rewind (Right) YOU are the tension adjustment....  You don't need a tension screw on the Right hand reel.  If you were to accidentally leave it engaged, you would end up working against it - Kind of like driving  your car with the emergency brake on.   For viewing film, the full reel is on the feed (left) rewind with the film going under - sprockets away from you.  For rewinding, the full reel starts on the Left rewind with the film going over the top, and your gloved Left hand holding the film against the back edge of the take up reel for an even - somewhat tight wind.  This way you are always using your strongest arm to do the work.  If your wind is loose - the film can "cinch" and scratch.
These Rewinds are the Large - Professional size with 9.5 inches from Shaft to Bench.  They will take up to a 19 1/2 inch reel - Roughly 2,000 feet.  I'm an Editor - so these are complete and ready to work.  The Tension screw is complete with spring, ball bearing, & Fiber brake fork.   I
oiled the bearings & greased the gears. These are in good working condition and good Cosmetic Condition.
Available with Spring Clamps for more.  To upgrade, purchase the rewinds, but don't pay until you ask for an Invoice with the revised amount.
Film reels should always be stored vertically - never horizontally as the weight of a stack of reels can break off edges of film that are sticking out.   In fact - you never want to stack reels of film horizontally - so buy a film rack for Vertical Storage - or build one out of 2x2" wood rails held about 6 inches apart.
I ship these in a FedEx box usually with the handles and/or shafts removed.
