I bought an Argoflex-E at a local antique store for a song, took the lenses off to CLA the shutter, and it's working great. Problem is I lost the tiny little screws that hold on the lens rings (last time I work at a table over a carpet!). Anyone have some spares, know where I could get some? I appreciate it! |

Run a strong magnet over the carpet and pull the original screws back up. |

Sorry, Small Parts ain't gonna have those teeny-tiny setscrews. Unfortunately, I know of no place to get them either, except for maybe here. There's no telling what size they are even if you could order them somewhere. |

Tom; Possible sources for small screws: Check with your local watch repairman or Optical shop. Somewhere I have a box of misc. very small screws used for watch movements. It would be helpful to know the size of screw in question and the type, (Flat head, Pan head, Round head, grub screw, etc. and the approx. diameter and length in MM.) Hope this may help. |
