Believe me...this is not something you want to do. A camera shutter is a little like a mechanical watch, but much more complicated! Lots of little parts. It takes special tools to get to where you can even see the shutter mechanism. (The most obvious screws are not the right screws...I have been there...I know...)

Having said the cautions, there are several good books available at the library that detail the basic techniques, the tools, and what solvents/lubricants are appropriate. There are also places online where you can order supplies and tools.
