: Not a difficult job. Just keep track of how things

To Bert Saunders :
Thank you Tony for your response. I took the film holder apart by unscrewing 3 screws on each side, and was able to see clearly where the light trap was to go. I glued it back into place, the key was to not place glue over the magnetic numbering wheel. It works fine, and now just needs to be tested with film. There is no visible light leak when held up to a strong light. Thank you again. Jim Tetz
