I have a Mamiya C33 TLR. I need the one little piece that is attached to the camera to screw in a cable release! Its the cable release sprocket! I try to win old junky ones and they all go to high for just getting one piece off! Any ideas?

It's crude, but you could get one of the screw-on Leica cable release adapters (not expensive, they're not actually made BY Leica), cut the business end off of it and epoxy it into place. Depending on how well equipped you are, you might be able to do a more elegant job of it.

Otherwise KEH has an "as is" section where you can find broken bodies for around $10US. Call em at 1 404 748-6041 n ask for Jeannie Cox.
