Hi! I’m Grady Johnson with Karma Train Productions and today we are looking at 16 mm films and I’m representing Expert Village.com. Okay, well we watched our films today and now it’s time to put away the movie screen. So what we want to do is break it down similar to the way we put it together, but we want to be sure and do this correctly. Let’s go ahead and turn it around so that we can look at our main target areas. Now you can see the main areas that we need to work on here. It’s going to break loose right here in the middle, and you see where it clips onto the bar. This controls the height and then the stand part is down here at the bottom. So let’s start here at the middle. We do want to break that through so we are just going to pull this up and break it loose. Now once we do that, you see the screen just folds right down. Be careful not to pinch your fingers; they can hurt pretty badly. That’s when you want to spin it around until it’s even and make sure you pop that back onto this bar again. Then go ahead and pull this part on up and scoot it all together like you would any other stand. Close those all up, set that down and bring over your box. Then go ahead and put the unit away and close it back up. And that way if you take care of these, they will last you a longtime and you get a lot of fun with it. I sure had a lot of fun showing these 16 mm films to my friends and I’m sure you will too.
