EMDE 7 perf masks

[P3D emdesher <emdesher@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

How many of you would be interested in the EMDE 7-perf or "European" mask?
I am going to start trying to get the press and die back into operation 
soon.  Because I will be using what's left of the aluminum foil stock, I 
cannot be certain how many packages will be available.  There will be some 
significant changes, which will hopefully make a quality difference.  
First, a different lubricant-naphtha, not an oil-will be used.  Ron 
Zakowski told me that's what they used for their aluminum masks.  This 
will eliminate the degreasing problem.  Second, the foil advance 
mechanism will be corrected so the masks are flatter and not curved.  
Third, the strike-out plate of the die has already been repaired so the 
masks will not have any creases.  For those of you not familiar with the 
EMDE 7 perf mask, it is different from the Realist series in that the 
film holders will permit unlimited horizontal film movement for window
adjustments.  The price will be $14.95 per 100, or less ten 15 cents 
each.  Compare that to Reel 3D's No. 4726 paper slip-in mount at $14.95 
per 50, or 29.9 cents each.  RBT non-glassed mounts are $31.00 per 50, or 
62 cents each.  In all cases, shipping is extra.  The EMDE mask is used by 
many of you alone, or you could insert the mask into a No. 3400 frame or 
the same mask could be used with glass and No. 3300 binder.  When product 
does become available, notice will be posted in Sell 3D.  At this time 
I cannot accept any orders, but will keep a priority list if you are 
interested.  Also, I am trying to make arrangements for EMDE products to 
be available at the upcoming NSA convention, as I will not be able to 
attend. :-(  Well, I am throwing it out to the 3D community, do you want 
them or not?   Dennis Sherwood   emdesher@xxxxxxxxxxxx
