I noticed Calumet has been dumping shutters from its hosemaster light-painting systems on the auction site:

A quick search of completed sales showed a number of them already gone at well under $100, The question is, would these be an alternative to a packard shutter for large barrel lenses. I've never seen on in the flesh, and don't know whether that would be a practical application or not. I'm sure they're big and heavy...
Anybody here familiar with them?
