<strong>Sound</strong>man's Repair Kit<br />
S8S# SMETER<br />
Every <strong>Super</strong> 8 <strong>Sound</strong>man should carry a test and repair kit<br />
on location. We suggest you buy a small VOM multi-tester,<br />
a battery-operated soldering iron, small pliers, screwdrivers,<br />
wirestrippers (a Swiss Army Knife can replace all three of<br />
these tools), insulating tape, solder, alligator-clip leads, and<br />
5-minute epoxy. Any local Radio Shack or similar electronics<br />
supply house can provide these for you.<br />
Filmmaker's Pocket Tool Kit<br />
We suggest you purchase a Swiss Army Knife. We recommend<br />
the version with scissors, magnifying glass for inspecting<br />
fil ms, soft plastic toothpick for scraping emulsion safely<br />
from the picture gate, metal file, hacksaw, Phillips type and<br />
3 flat screwdrivers, tweezers, and other features. This may<br />
prove to be the tool you use most on many film productions.<br />
Carrying Cases<br />
<strong>Super</strong>8 <strong>Sound</strong> can supply, on special order, custom carrying<br />
cases for all our sync cameras, with die-cut foam inserts or<br />
custom contoured cases designed by the camera manufacturers.<br />
However, the original camera case is often less convenient<br />
than a single large case or cases that can hold a camera<br />
and many production accessories.<br />
We have found the least expensive and most versatile case to<br />
be the Fiberbilt Adapt-a-Case. With movable interior padded<br />
partitions, or pre-cut cubes of foam, you can safely store<br />
cameras, cables, etc. in the same box. The larger cases come<br />
in fibre or aluminum construction, and in a variety of sizes<br />
and shapes. We list here only two of the most popular sizes.<br />
We can order any Fiberbilt case; send for a complete listing<br />
of sizes and prices.<br />
