jnovek--I hope that you are aware of the fact that the Tourist camera used size 620 film which is no longer widely available. Size 120 film size is the same, but the spool for 120 is a little larger and will not fit into the Tourist. The size 620 is available from some specialty suppliers but at a premium price.My advice is to have fun getting the Tourist shutter to work, but if you wish to pursue the larger format with a camera about the same size etc as the Tourist, then look around for a German made camera which will probably use the readily available size 120.
