    Cable release socket repair (Copal)

    Hi,

    I've got a Copal 0 that is missing a single screw from the cable release socket, and a Copal 1 that's socket is cross-threaded.

    I want to buy a replacement socket for the Copal 1, and if possible just a screw for the Copal 0 (though if I have to buy the whole socket again, I'll survive.)

    Jim at MPEX doesn't stock have parts, never does Badger Graphics. Anyone got a good source to try next?

    Thanks

    Tim

    I recently purchased a PC socket from Carol Miller. Or try CRIS

    You can also call Schneider. It is an expensive little part to replace. I would suggest buying a spare. I have one that I have never had to use for several years.
