Sounds like you’re attracting star talent, Eric. Let us know what the first results (pictures) of his efforts are!
Take a switch to those switches, Fred—Welcome!
If you can’t fix the problem with a hammer—it’s electrical!
Fred welcome aboard, I envy you!!
The switches can wait for a fully operational diagnostic suite, imo.
Very interesting and impressive background that Mr. Van Roessel brings. I imagine he’s got a few stories to tell about the behind-the-scenese of image production of our favorite films and shows. Here’s to his contributions for his newest project: may the LPPX become the most historical one yet!
