I have some notes in a text file that I made when I was dismantling my father's Retinette IIb, with some additions I added when I was doing my own Ia. If you send your email address via the forum (click on my user-name) I will send it to you. I don't think it is possible to send an attachment via the forum, and a copy-and-paste would probably get garbled. The only tricky part of the job is that you have to unscrew a ring at the back, via the film gate, which needs a special tool. I made my own but there is a company selling them on eBay in the USA which look well made. You would have to check if it is right for the Ia as they only mention the IIa, but my own tool worked on both the Ia and IIb, so I would guess it should be OK. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280119888835 I also have some photos which might help if you get stuck. |
