I'm starting a restoration project on a Century Universal 8x10. Restoration may be too strong a word, as the camera has so much dust and grime on it, I'm not sure yet whether I can just clean it up or will need to completely disassemble, sand off the old finish, and refinish.
At the very least, the initial survey shows:
1. bellows need replacing
2. handle needs replacing
3. clean all the wood
4. clean all the aluminum and brass.
I've also noticed some missing parts, so if anyone has the following, please contact me:
1. missing pin for spring on lower left of back
2. missing gg holder
3. missing knob for tightening second extension.
I'll also post a WTB for these.
Thanks!
Michael
