I've been on Flutot's waiting list for over a year and I noticed recently that she is not accepting rush orders now either. SK Grimes seems a bit pricey for a CLA($100). Any other reputable(and reasonable) shutter experts in the US?
Thanks!

That is too bad to hear. I had mine rush ordered at Flutot's over a year ago and I was very pleased.
Other than having Carol do it, I don't know who else. No help, sorry.

I have sent things to Paul Ebel, as well as Carol, with great results from both.
Thanks,
Nathan
I second Paul Ebel—simple excellent in all respects
I use Carol as exclusively as I can. She is terrific. On the few things that she does not handle, I have been very successful with both Camera Wiz in Harrisnburg, Va and with KEH's repair department.

i do not know why anyone ever gets on a waiting list for shutter repair. Frank Marshman from Camera Wiz in Harrisnburg, Va is the best. fast. affordable. perfect repairs everytime. and NO waiting list that lasts months or years.
i wait more for the shipping company to get me my lenses back and forth than i do for frank to actual do the service. he has gotten me stuff back to me in 7-14 days usually, maybe 21 when he is busy.
My YouTube Channel has many interesting videos on Soft Focus Lenses and Wood Cameras. Check it out.

Have you asked Samy's Camera or Keeble & Shuchat?
Paul Ebel is who I send my shutters to. He's around $60 and fairly fast. The work has been excellent.
Thanks guys, got a couple more options now!
