I finally fixed the old-style film back for my Hasselblad! I bought this back from my friend, but it turns out that it didn't work! He gave me a discount, and I set out to repair it. After about 10 hours over three days of fiddling with it, I finally understood how all of the gears, levers, and springs fit together, but there was one big problem: one of the springs was broken!
I ordered a replacement spring from David Odess, and it arrived today in the mail. A little less than an hour later, and I have what appears to be a fully functioning film back!
I'll see if I can finish up the roll this week and report back.
