Hi. Great forum! I collect various cameras and there is some wonderful info here!
I don't know if anyone has any experience with this, but if you do I would love to be pointed in the right direction.
My Lomo's film winder handle is gone. I lost it on a train in Scotland w/o realizing it. I can't seem to find Lomo parts anywhere and wonder if there isn't a better solution. It seems the way it attaches is by screwing in. I figure I can prolly jury rig something, but wanted to know if anyone had advice first.
Thanks for your time and what a great forum! |

What LOMO is it? It would help if we knew that. |

I just test-fitted a rewind handle/knob from a Praktica BMS to a LC-A and it worked a treat, it is smaller in diameter than the LOMO's original one though. A broken BCA or BMS should be readily, and cheaply, available via ebay (or wherever).
You can see what the rewind knob looks like here:
