Hello,
I've read the thread carefully and hoped to find help here.
I recently bought a Heliar like Steven (unmarked Universal). Unfortunately, it was hit hard during transport and now has a dent in the soft focus ring. The soft focus ring is hard to turn, but it works.
I leave it that way for now, because the risk is too great that more will break. I want to clean the heliar, but I can't open it. I am afraid of doing something wrong.
The rear lens came off easily! I removed the screw on the aperture ring. How's it going from here? Do I have to unscrew the threaded ring at the back (in front of the aperture)? It's very stuck, that's why I'm asking about it here. Thank you for your support.
