I have an Argus Argoflex medium format camera and the shutter does not work. The aperature closes and opens and the shutter speed ring moves but it doesn't click. I've tried to get inside and see what is up but I can't figure out how. Is there any way I can fix this myself? I would appreciate anyone's input on this.

Rick has a nice drawing that shows how to get into the shutter on the Argoflex:

If you need more information on the shutter see:
