a gift

the one i repaired is back to its owner. this one is a gift from a friend. and all it needed was a mcgyver fix. it is now ready to use.

it is old and shabby but everything is working. the lenses are a little fuzzy.
the latch needed repair. it would not shut tight. a stud on the body to keep it in place is missing.
so with the help of cyanoacrylate glue and a small screw, i made my own stud on the latch.
it can now securely close shut and protect the film inside. it can use some cosmetic though but that can wait. a roll of 120 film awaits in my drawer.
