Thanks for getting the back on it's way FedEx ground. The bill of shipment says that the box (wood) and packaging, including the back weigh 40 lbs. Very nice. That camera is worth money for the parts. My camera was missing some simple brass shim like bushings. Fortunately I found an amazing guy, real old school machinist that made some for me. This stuff is so much fun.
Best Regards Mike
I wish I could go get it....but it's just too far at the moment. If anyone from the Midwest is going to NC and is willing to get it a bit closer, I'd be very grateful. Currently, it's 802 miles away. If we can get that down to about 400....

They are steel, soft, that were attached with a press, or by a skilled person. There's things like this available today, I found one that is very similar but too "thick" if I had a milling machine, it would be an easy alteration. My machinist, got the damn Covid, I need to check again see how he's doing.
My camera is on carpet so it's not an issue. Mine has 2 of the pads, all of the original knows. I'm trying to keep it all original. Such a beautiful machine.
