so.... the camera is in a worst state from I imagined, basically I got F twice first the seller then the online action site... the camera is half superglue a quarter saw dust and the rest dryrot wood with some shoe polish.
I manage to save the bellows, as it responded well to the diy balm, not perfect(cannot replace de missing pieces..) make a frame that got eaten by bugs and I have to remake the interior. double the cardboard to make it more stiff dubble all places that flex and finish with an old Tshirt. I will paint them "ultra" mate black at some point. (and make a spare bellow in a more conventional way)
Front standard is not usable-70%loss due to dryrot=somewhat stabilized with... superglue
), I will take some rides to local bricolage shops to find some materials for it. they must match somewhat the thicknesses of original material.
even the F mounting flange is F the lens was glue with superglue. the lens is also kinda F. some screws are actual nails...
The body has so many, so many holes....
Before somebody says that is a write off, I can't do that, I at least have to try.
