Does any one besides micro tools sell the cocking racks for Retinas,. The US branch only lists parts for Kodak slide projectors and the European branch , which shows to have the rack will not allow you to buy one if you are in the US. When you try to register as a customer their list of countries , which MUST be filled out , does not have the US on it. Anyone know of a way to get around this glitch? |

The rack is listed on their US site but shows out of stock. I don't know, but it might mean that the end has come for this part... |

That does not sound good. The european site shows them in stock, have we any european members that might act as an agent to get one or two for some one in the states?
If worst comes to worst , I guess I could try fabricating one or perhaps just grafting new teeth on to the old one, I am fairly decent at that kind of work , I scratch build HO locomotives from brass. The teeth on them are not a complicated pattern, just straight foward sawtooth design-- hmmm? Perhaps I will look at a couple of coping saw blades or jewlers saws --might be a way to graft part of one of them on the old rack. |
