Steve,
Yes I did. There are four washers total and I got two of them where
I think they belog. WIth everything loose I did not feel like taking
another FA-1 to see where everything went. I used and reused the dial and
shook the finder about to see if there was an apparent placing for the spare
washers.
Thanks for the enabling, well at least it is not as expensive as the
77 I ordered.
