Oh dear!

This is a call for help as well as for a grilling!


I was stripping the Anniversary Speed Graphic, and unfortunately I broke the top off a very important screw!!

It's the screw that holds the shutter release lever onto the external bit of the shutter mech. It has a fairly big flat top with a long thin thread - it goes through to behind the metal plate.


Has anyone had a similar problem and found a replacement? Or else know of a source for a similar piece?

Yeooow... I know EXACTLY which screw you are talking about. You probably need to contact Fred Lustig in Reno Nevada... US of A and hope that he can get one to you. Google him. Good luck!

http://graflex.org/news/lustig.html This is pretty old material, but I've heard that he, despite poor health over the past couple of years, is currently active. If you really want a good time, call him... he's really delightful to chat with.
