Hi, I need some help reassembling my Copal SV shutter from a Yashica 12.

I've figured out most of it, but I'm not sure where
this thin copper colored washer goes. It's pictured here: http://web.mit.edu/yipal/Public/shutter/DSC_1932.JPG

I've put up some other pictures also here if you're interested...

Most likely the washer goes under the escapment at the pallet end to shim it. Most copals have two shims and both are the thin metal type like the triangular piece in your picture. But I have seen some earlier versions of these that use a washer instead.
