Copal Projectors - looking for belt

[rweilert]

After almost a year of absence...

Hi!

Back in Sweden on holidays I found two Copal projectors - a firm I've never heard of before. I was surprised to see the robust and thorough construction and first thought it was an Eumig or something like that.

There are two photos at

and

in case you want to see what I mean.

Does anyone here have more information about Copal?

On the smaller one, the belt has dissolved. Where in Germany can I get a replacement?

Thanks for your comments!

Regards

Rolf

Wittner has some Copal projector belts listed here:

You'll have to check if they are compatible with your models.

Cheers,

Oh thanks, I found it

COPAL Sekonic 390D HL (Neckermann), Sekonic CP77 und baugleiche Typen
Motorriemen
Best.-Nr. 8066 - (15.00 EUR netto) 17.85 EUR brutto

And now just imagine I paid about 1.70 EUR for the projector, and the belt costs ten times as much
