So as I was trying to unscrew the lens from my 35,l as it needed cleaning, a spring fell out of the mechanism. Now I am able to cock the shutter and shoot it, BUT, the lens does not open. I have taken the lens apart down to the clockwork, I though I will be able to see the spring on Dan Mitchells website but unfortunately it does not show on any of the photos. Any ideas what could do that?

I will try to post a picture of it later, as soon as I charge the battery to my digital.

If you are talking about the Flash Kodamatic shutter, I have a series of images that might help you out...
