Thankd Jeff, will try that. Any idea on how to
align the two film strips without the pins? The
16mm seems to be the only one on the right; there
are two other holes on the left that might
produce pins once it's unglued. Or are 35mm pros
so expert they don't need pins?
thanks
Scott

On this older version, I think the front and
back buttons work in tandem push on the rear
one to move pins in one direction, the front to
move in the other. Same on each side.
The pins may be stuck try some acetone in the
holes around the pins to dissolve old film
cement. Work the buttons back and forth.
Good luck!

There are some buttons on the sides that don't
seem to move, and some other nuts and screws.
