I need to put back into place two of the aperture blades on a Ikonta Compur Rapid shutter, model 532/16 which jumped their holes when the shutter was flood cleaned, at least I am hoping they jumped their holes and pins did not fall out.
I can not find a shutter 'how to' that shows this particular machine and though I was hoping I could do this without going in from the front, it looks like I'll have to tear down the entire assemble, a trial by fire if successful, a poke in the eye and "I told you so" from the Universe if no.:bang:
Has anyone here had any luck with these shutters or tips to pass on?
How about a trashed Camera or 80 mm Super 532/16 lens for cheap that I can practice on?
Cheers

You'll have to remove the shutter and go into both the front and the back (the blade actuating spring is in the front). This should help, at least a little: http://pheugo.com/cameras/index.php?page=compur&WEBMGR=7ea2fdbb6ad81ea6c01958123c9ca71d
