RE: disassembling a Spotmatic

[frank theriault]

I seem to recall that removing the top plate may not be as simple as it 
seems.  Other than the fact that there are many small teeny little screws 
that one must keep track of, it seems to me that that I had trouble removing 
a ring around either the rewind spindle or the film advance hub.  It either 
needs a special tool, or one must fashion one one's self.

I got the instructions from someone once, and got as far as the above 
mentioned problem, then gave up and put it back together.

If no one else on this list has it, try going over to YahooGroups Spotmatic 
and asking there.  Someone will have those instructions, I'm quite 
confident.

cheers,
frank

... to those who have done this before:

I have just received a nice and clean Spotmatic F that has a loose flash 
shoe. I
suppose that this can be fixed easily from inside the top cover but are 
there
any details to observe when removing this part? Any left hand threads or
springs that jump out?

Thanks for your advice!

Sven
