Where can I find replacement rubber belts, drive wheels and pinch rollers for my decrepit VTR? #11. Can I borrow, buy or rent equipment from you? NO. With the exception of movie and television props. But, the price is far beyond amateur budgets. Only queries from professional producers will be entertained. Also, no vidicon cameras are available from me for music videos at this time. #12. I have an old videotape. Can you (LabGuy's World) copy my tape to VHS or another modern format for me? NO! The success rate is so low, that I no longer offer dubbing service.
