Michael Geschlecht Posted March 25, 2013 Share #2 Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Hello Again Byeong-dong sa, If you don't consider all of the screws, wires, washers & spacers: There are not that many pieces & they are relatively large for such a small camera. Nice work. Best Regards, Michael Edited March 25, 2013 by Michael Geschlecht Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerzy Posted June 14, 2013 Share #7 Posted June 14, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi, just wonder how did it end. Is the Leica operating as it was? However looking at the set of tools, they look professional, so the author seem to know extent of this experiment. Anyhow, the rule is - disassembly only this what is really needed. Even having a good manual and tools it might be very challenging for inexperienced person to put everything in the order as it was, usually some shims, screws are left over. And never disassembly long time escape, nor viewfinder and take care with wind mechanism. Everything looks so easy on exploded diagram, reality is more challenging. Alone setting the wind mechanism so that every latch catches when it shall may take hours and days. Just my 2cents.... Jerzy Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alandash Posted June 16, 2013 Share #8 Posted June 16, 2013 When I was in the U.S. Army, I had to take apart my gun and put it back together blindfolded. I was so good at it, that I ended up with lots of extra parts left over after reassembly. I call that efficiency! The gun looked really great, except that it mysteriously blew up when I fired it. Even so, they liked me so much that they refused to accept my resignation. Are you planning to cheat, by leaving the lights on?
