jc_braconi Posted July 18, 2011 Share #2 Posted July 18, 2011 At least the double thickness of the used one, must be satured of medium oil before reinserting the tube. Good luck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

miss_emma_jade Posted July 20, 2011 Author Share #4 Posted July 20, 2011 well, it went in! I've been thinking a steel mandrel with a taper to screw onto the barrel would have been the best way, nut I managed it with lots of patience a nd a thin sheet of plastic. Yayy. This lens is as good as it ever will be now... Time to put some film in my camera. :-) Emma Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
