Hi Clint,
You're right, that's it. But not all the time. This afternoon it did wind
the film but with quite an spinning effort. So I decided to use the
screwdriver.
I'd have bet it was a consequence of my underwater experiences with my OM-2
and winder :-)
So it seems I should dive a little more inside the gears. What a mess !!
Then I must build something resembling CE 001900... I don't think I could
find one with the exact measures, which btw I completely ignore.
Thanks a lot,
Fernando.
