I'll throw in $50.... but you need to keep them around long enough so I can come down sometime in the next 18 months and see them in person.

Aw sh*t, If Curt wants in we can use my truck, it'll carry that beast, as long as most of my gas is paid for kruger, I'll pay for the oil, It's only 80 miles right? But if you catch on fire while you're playing with this behemoth Curt's gonna be pissed about blowing 50.00 and not getting to see the image this thing makes....and I aint gonna tell him you bot all burned up. I will however put you out if you should ignite, but you better have a dry chemical fire extiguisher handy 'cause there aint no way I'm spraying water anywheres near that 220v Highly dangerous Xenon bulb. I bet if that thing were to blow you could loose an eye or a ball or something. Stop drop and roll. Twisted Evil

Hell. I'll even bid .99 cents for the thing. I'll even pay the 0.99. But if I do win it for 0.99 you better take it home after we fetch it. Twisted Evil

Do we have a deal?

Remove the lenses, and you've shaved about 15 pounds off! No problem moving it after that!

Yeah... that's the ticket.... snipe 'em

I would be up for going after these things if we could be sure we had plenty of help getting them into the truck... and out of the truck here at the shop. My neighbor has a forklift, I'm pretty sure we can use it. But I'm pretty crowded in here already. 40yrs worth of packratting! How about putting one in your garage Ray?

Aargh! Can you imagine the cost of shipping these to Chicago?

jkruger · Joined: 24 Oct 2007 Posts: 2435 Location: Carlsbad, CA

Seriously guys, is there anything of value in these? I'm not gonna do this unless it looks like there's a buck to be made....

It is probably more of a case of,how much money are you willing to throw away on a learning experience and possible "toy". I doubt there is any money to be made.

I'm not concerned with getting any real money out of them, just enough to keep the beer flowing while I dismantle and take pictures.

I'll kick in $20 if you promise to try and get a picture out of it.

ANyone else wana throw in an armoured vest, cup and face shield so he can inspect the bulb? Shocked

jkruger · Joined: 24 Oct 2007 Posts: 2435 Location: Carlsbad, CA

make that an armored cup.... I have a perfect place to set one up for a night. Big parking lot with big flat block walls on all the bldgs in our industrial park. We could have a one-night drive in. Someone else has to supply the popcorn.

Any knowledge you'd need to know could be told by the guy at AVS thatt has one set up in his theater, instead of killing one just to see what males it tick.. He has pictures also the last I knew.

These would be awesome for anyone interested in a HUGE screen setup. If they weren't in California, I'd do my best to try to snag them:( I have a friend that owns a sports bar and one of these, especially with a spare, would be perfect... Problem is I know he wont pay to ship 800 pounds worth of machines all the way across the country.
