If you're having to use production gear well beyond its prescribed end of life period and you're either missing or have damaged unique, but important, plastic parts, it's time to get out your saved broken parts and use them as templates to make new ones.

I saw this Plastex stuff mentioned for repairing plastics for all kinds of unique tabs, brackets, flanges, knobs, stripped thread wells, etc. It actually re-creates an exact duplicate of a broken part. They said it bonds at a molecular level, unlike topical glues, so it's as good as the original. I don't think I'd trust it for high stress points though. If you don't have a machining tool, CNC or 3D printer, this looks like a great fix for speacialty fittings that are no longer made or too expensive to justify replacing.

Hello guys,

Critique away! Let me have it lol. I've been registered here for awhile but I'm really just now getting around to posting here. I've been a video editor for 10 years and I've been on my current job for almost 3 years as a photographer. Some of the stuff is way old. I just added a couple recent elements to the tape. Thank you for looking!

Does anyone use Verizon Wireless to transmit video to Bitcentral's Remote Contribution? If so, have you had any problems sending files since the first part of February? Any solutions? After numerous tests and equipment replacement, Verizon and Bitcentral just say its a problem with the other. Does your station use another cellular provider successfully?

Thanks for any input.

So I am once again shopping for gear for a upcoming job and am looking to add a couple of silks and black scrim to my kit. In the past I have used photo flex and wescott and never been overly wowed by either. They both have points I liked and points I didn't. Can anybody recommend any other builds to check out.

In the past I believe I have even seen somebody build their own out of speed rail. Which wins definite points for durability. Point is I am open to dialog lets have at it.

A couple of SANDBAGS would've been nice to add to the budget. oops

Editing on Avid Media composer and need to export the timeline sequence to S x S card on the Sony PMW 500 . Does anyone knows how to do this ?

Thanks.
