The winding knob has been previously repaired with little success. All the pieces were bent and turning the knob was very hard. Even the camera casing was bent.
The cover of the knob spring was smashed. I fabricated a piece
of
wood that will fit inside the washer and bend it back to original shape
from the inside.
The piece of wood fits inside the washer.
The three pieces of the winding knob spring. The star-shaped piece is
the spring that has to fit in the groove of the bent washer.
Back in place. Now the winding knob lies flat against the body of the
camera.
The shutter removed to gain access to the cracked bellows
Small leather patch in place.
