Patching is just temporary repair. There are many ways to replace the shutter curtains. The whole unit, the in situ curtail replacement only. materials are readily available from Japanese supply. The one from Micro-tool never worked for me.

Coming back to this thread again as I just opened a totally jammed sharkskin IIIc I had bought “spares or repair” for a good price. Winding totally jammed, I opened it up and found this!

It is rubbery and possibly explains why the shutter springs were wound up to 11!

It was a five minute job to get it operational but it will need a bit more TLC another day.

Oh yes and the pressure plate was upside down 😊
