Flatbed turntable thingy [Update - taken]
This started life as the baseplate for an IBM 1621 paper tape reader for a 1960s IBM 1620 computer. The sprung buffer arms and rollers ensure the paper tape was under a constant gentle tension. I added the brass/aluminium platters to handle 16mm film and magnetic film, although I never finished the magnetic recorder I had in mind. The platters run on 1/2" shafts and good quality bearings. Perhaps it would be useful to someone, for something. Text me on 021-609-752
