Sometimes we can learn good tips from our kids!!!
MY daughter saw me on my 4s looking for a spring with a magnet, took me a good 45 min until I found it.
She said "Dad, I saw this life hack" just use some string to handle the springs and you will see them easily.

I'll be darned, it worked!
Not only it was easy to see if it flew, but made the install simpler and more efficient
That's a great little trick, if you don't have the spring hook tool. And even if you do, this idea might be better!

Nice collection of Karat cameras. I'm getting ready to do a video on the Agfa Karat, so it required me to buy more Karat models. I've been wanting to get a couple of cameras with the Rodenstock Heligon. I did find a Retina IIc (small c), which is another camera in line to be serviced and put to use.



If you can't fix it with a hammer... you got an electrical problem
even duct tape can't fix stupid.... but it can muffle it (SilentObserver)
