P3D Re: TDC 132 "Project-or-view"??

Hi Michael,

The Project-or-view is a perfectly adequate device for its intended
purpose. It uses only 300-watt lamps, though, and its lenses are of
relatively short focal length--2.85"--so it is tolerable, but not really
suitable as a large-screen projector. In addition, its bulky housing
makes it cumbersome to operate in that mode.

I have one that I have been meaning to offer for sale. It is in
excellent condition and includes two working lamps, the original
carrying case, the stereo and single 2X2 slide carriers and a photocopy
of the service manual. This last is quite useful since disassembly is
not entirely intuitive.

Its screen is perfect. But the case has a couple of small rips in the
fabric.

Because this outfit is so complete, I need to have $250 for it. 
Since I am in S.F. we can just arrange a pick-up or delivery to save the
cost of packing and shipping.

Let me know if you are interested.

Norm Lehfeldt
