Рет қаралды 423,645
3 ай бұрынHi everyone !
This is a rare movie projector produced by the French company Wamoo toys around 1950. These toys were very popular in Europe, even if i didn't know that brand. This is my very first 8mm projector.
I was surprised and really excited to find 3 films in the pack !
Please watch till the end to see this rare movie projector in action !
By supporting the channel you help me make more of these video and find more amazing items.
I hope you'll enjoy this restoration.
Special thanks to electrostaticmagic for the beautiful powder paint !!

@TheFabrik 3 ай бұрын
Thanks a lot Damien, I love that chrome effect ;) I’m not sure Wamoo sold a lot of these projectors… such a thin metal sheet. Not easy to make it work properly, I broke the films many times, too old probably. Thanks to the editing you don’t see it but I had to restart the projector every time I broke the film frame🤬😅
@Damien.D 3 ай бұрын
@@TheFabrik yeah this fims tends to become brittle with time and I see nothing wrong at all with the mechanism. That's why for preserving old movies, they are scanned frame by frame, not projected. This projector should work with any 8mm film, the reels are even standard ones!

Oh Gee! I think I have something similar (Except the one I have has been made for North America or maybe adapted by someone, I'm not sure). It was given to me by one of my deceased uncles as written in his last will two decades ago. The toy projector is still in a cardboard box for many years and I've never been able to make it work. Because it's some kind of family heirloom to me, I never threw it away.

This one says 110 V, which is close enough to US 120 to be interchangeable. Besides, the only thing you'd need to change would be the light bulb.
