RE: Fixing Spud bakelite

[Stephen Puckett <spuckett@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

While repairing the big bakelite cracks/gaps, one might as well
try to also fix any smaller areas - the Sputniks/Lubitels are prone
to light leaks.  Sometimes it seems that the back just doesn't want
to get itself closed 'properly' which leads to an intermittent leak.
My attitude is to swath the joins with black gaffer tape (with a 
Holga I also add stout rubber bands around the body).  Not as 
elegant as an ERS-style bakelite repair, though.  Do both for a
belt-and-suspenders solution.
