When I have been through the rest my movies and sold them on I will no longer need this
Whats the condition? any photos? any idea of price?
As you've mentioned this on here are you offering your films on here?
Is this a one off thread?

Here's a picture of the Fumeo 9119.
Note that it is not an auto-thread, and as it's a conversion from the 16mm model I find mine to be none too easy to thread, and to get the loops correct. Quite frankly, it's not a model that I can recommend.

Thanks Maurice, i was hoping to see "Robbo" come back like i guess thats not happening. Not a model i would want. I think this is another machine that you need to be able to maintain yourself.

I must add that the biggest problem with the 9119 is that each spool spindle has two adjustments for its tension. Both feed and take-up arms.
1) An end adjustment for belt tension.
2) A shaft adjustment for I know not what!
The instruction book is no help with advice, stating something like adjust tension as required. A fat lot of good. We must not forget that this model is capable of using 2300ft spools.
A further criticism is the long film path which goes under the lamp house. There is not a lot of clearance and if take-up tension is not correct it's possible the film will drop and drag along the restricted area and thus cause scratching on the emulsion side of the film.
My model is badged as a 9119 but it does have recording capabilities thus making it really a 9120. This, I believe, is because most Fumeo projectors were made to order.

I don't mind throwing a card out there. If it is available for sale I'd be willing to tackle it. My email should be on the forum list.

Maurice,you have the same one as I have.
Yes it is a bit of a bugger to load but personally im quite happy with mine.
What I do like is the optical sound for my airline prints with the long play.
Not cheap though
Looking for Reel1 “SERPICO”
