I've been VERY happy with Bruno Lancement at http://www.atelierdeblanc.fr/.

His main activity is restoration, but he also did some CLA for me and has the skills and equipments to rebuild/adapt any kind of cameras.

Bruno is also a very nice person to deal with.

It's quite frustrating trying to find some items in Europe, McMasterCarr don't sell outside the US and I can't find a European equivalent.

It's coming to the point where I'm considering buying a lathe and milling macj=hine myself, but then I'd have to learn to use them as well . . . . . .

I had a Mamiya RB67 4.5/180 mounted into a Compur #1, the cost of postage to and from Budapest was greater than the cost of the work and he did a great job.

Neither machine is that hard to learn to use. For that matter a LF photographer would be a natural since they all involve patience and attention to detail.
