You have a fantastic price on the Tower 26, I might add it is almost GIFT at that price. That is clearly a collectors Item , someone ought to wake up and snap it up.

Reverse engineer a K-1000, That might a great starting point, and yes I wish Ricoh success.

I see it went over very well, not many people are Interested. Besides you have oodles of old vintage camera's that are of great quality. Just saying, not sure what these boy's were thinking. I thouhgt for one at least try to copy the old Spotmatic or K-1000.

All you did was clean up the slow speed assemble. You need to make the curtains complete their cycle together with the mirror box. take the bottom off and see if their is a way to release the wind up mechanism and try to rewind it. Remember do it at your own peril. Personally I would dis assemble it and go that route. Don't force anything. Could just need a slight lubrication and slight adjustment on the curtains. Better read the service manual first.

Goes without saying clean all electrical contacts. Also you can manually rewind the camera and then after, just bump the rewind and it should fire. also with the film canister out push the 2 pins in the back and press the shutter button

Even if I go along with that, it is a pity they could it made it so a mere sliding of a switch could given the best of both worlds. Just saying

I just replace the curtains my self, but I CAN. Most people cannot. You certainly can try that goup approach first. My feeling is it will work for a while but it is never as good as a Sutter Rebuild EVER.

I for one have no wish for such a half of a camera. Why not just make a 35mm camera straight up

Just what the previous poster said. Never ever ever paint a curtain, and be careful with solvents even alcohol can cause that.

You can use pliobond or rubber cement like for fixing a flat tire. make sure the orientation is correct. I believe you can get curtain material from B H Photo. PM me ill tell you more
