Make sure to get the very latest model:
TCS TXM-20Ba

Thanks Lunar07. That's actually the one I've already got, but it doesn't fit my camera. My camera was off being modded to UP8 when I acquired the 20Ba. My mistake. The Tobin website had an image of the camera with which the 20Ba is compatible which I thought was the same as mine but turned out it wasn't. My camera is an earlier model Bolex for which a different version motor is required.

cheers

Speaking of my mad actor friend. I haven't seen him in about three months but he just turned up today. This is a recent feature film in which he plays a monster. It's due for release some time next year.

So your camera does not have the 1:1 shaft. It has the 8:1 shaft.
Do you want to sell the 20Ba that you have?

Yeah - it's got the 8:1 shaft. I'm actually going to swap my 20Ba with one that Nicholas has, which will work on mine.

I did get another motor that fits my Bolex, but it's not crystal sync. Works but. Has a junction box into which you swap pegs to configure it for different power supplies and different speeds. Beautiful thing.

Thanks for your replies Carl re the experimental/narrative thing - I think I agree with pretty well everything you said

Yes, I have the motor you are talking about and the voltage switch box.
