I was wrong.  I forgot I had seen your page.  Very nice work.  I think your
system might work more smoothly than mine in the long run.

Your scheme wouldn't work for the Lubitel, since there's not enough play in
the mechanism to allow you to put your second spool in.  But I might use a
similar system when I pair up some Ricohflexes.

Have you finished the linking of the shutters?  Ay, thar's the rub.  :^)
