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....

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?
