hey all

this might be a bit of a daft question, but just in case ...
was removing a looper from an eiki slimline slotload & found a small spring when i was cleaning up, which i'm presuming escaped from the projector, but can't see anywhere obvious it should go ... it's about 3cm long & 5mm wide;
was unscrewing the looper from where the handle normally goes, so i'm guessing it should go somewhere in the vicinity ...

& if anyone's in dublin, we've a new solus expo coming up at filmbase! opening on june 24th, with a coupla screenings the following week

cheers all round, moira
