Hi,
I'm new to the site and have been restoring a Century Grand 5x7 triple extension camera from early 20th century. When I was removing the front stand, a piece of metal strip, bent ( I suppose to make it act as a spring) 1/10th of an inch wide by 3 inches long, fell on to the desk. The standard still works as normal so I could leave it out - the rest of the camera does now too after receiving a full dismantle, recovering with new leather and new 24 inch bellows (that was a learning curve!). I don't like to leave it out though and would prefer to install it where it should be - trouble is I have no idea where it goes or what function it has.
Can anyone assist?
