Hello everyone
So by now most of you will know about this lovely old girl I am bringing back to life.
What I need to figure out now is how to work with the film holders. I have one of the three original holders that is totally intact and workable. Now I know I need inserts to make sheet film work in these holders but looking at the holders I am a bit confused.
There is a thin metal "page" inside that separates the two sides. This metal sheet has a spring loaded blade on the one side which, I believe, should hold the glass plate in place but it has this blade on the one side only...
Anyone who works with these who can give me a few pointers?
Much appreciated!
I am sure some images would help but I will only be able to do that next week sometime...
Cheers everyone!
