One of the BEST "training films" I have ever seen. My grandfather was a projectionist for a major theater, and I was the school projectionist for my school (I was about the only one who knew how to run the school projector). I just wish I'd had this film then! Great humor and light-heartedness. Humor is a GREAT way to improve the memory of what you want an audience to remember!

When I was in primary school in the late 70's/early 80's, I quickly learnt how to use this projector. Bear in mind I was around 9 or 10 yrs old at the time. I was often called to run the projector for other classes. I also ran the projector for the end-of-year 3-hr movie with the 1-hr long-play reels. They were heavy!!

Brent, I always wanted to be that guy to operate the projector, but they just wouldn't let kids touch them. So I grew up and bought my own projector. :D

Very funny and entertaining presentation I watched 10x May be will watch it again. Great job thanks

that was great!..I learned a lot.... and I gather you are a pro announcer or teacher... very informative... and funny too!

Very informative and entertaining video. Besides having a spare lamp on hand, I would also recommend having a bunch of rubber belts on standby too. I used to operate an Eiki 16mm projector and the belts in the arms would break extremely frequently.

16mm projectors can be tricky: Either they attract all the girls in town, or they make you lonely for the rest of your life.

Loved the video...good job and funny too

funny! just bid on one of these. Hopefully it will impress and amaze!

Hi there, thanks for the brilliant video! My projector seems to be running fine apart from no lamp light (which I'm replacing) and both spools aren't twisting at all when I run it - any idea why this might be? Thanks

@databits

It is likely the belts which turn the spools are broken/deteriorated. Remove the covers on each "arm" and check them.

Thanks so much for this...its been a huge help. Can I ask...with the speakers...do I connect the on-board ones to the projector via a phone to phone lead?

Any idea how to replace the belts? A few of them are tricky, I don't know what it requires to get the belts on without breaking it.

When the film didn't catch inside the take-up reel when you tried it, when you said "if you do it too soon, your film won't lock into the hole" and I was thinking you're gonna say "and then you look like a dumbass" because that's how I feel whenever that happens xD

Are you ever gonna figure out a way to watch sleepyheads for the rest of us? Cause I've never seen it and would love the opportunity

I wonder what year this film was from? If it was around the 1970's then our school would've played it in the mid 1980's.

You say the projection bulb is "easy to remove" but nevertheless it would have been nice to show how it's done. On a Bell & Howell Filmosound it is indeed very simple. On an EIKI that ejection lever (directly below the lamp) requires some force and is not always that user friendly.

My motor is working fine but despite changing the bulbs a few times the light just doesn't come on. Is this because I already attracted a mate and can get any girl I want? My mate is male if that makes a difference. Cheers

I wanted a 16mm projector, but I could only afford a 15mm one.

I have one of these but the sound is rather "wobbly", as if it's being effected by the shutter

That's probably because the lower loop is too small, or it could be because of a bad/broken flywheel.
