    I read quite a few comments, admittedly not all. But I haven’t seen this asked.

    How is this 600 pounder handled? Forklift? Hoist? WTH?

      Smaller reels that are spliced together as they’re fed on the feed platter you see. My dad was a a projectionist, he’d make these up when a film arrived then break it down to ship it. I’d go on and help him as a kid.

        Can confirm! I worked projection in high school and college. IIRC the longest one I built was one of the Lord of the Rings movies.

          So, in my hometown, we actually have one IMAX theater, and it is within 3 blocks of a Gold’s Gym. This is now canon as far as I’m concerned.
