I finished the Ikonflex today. Replaced missing leathette, glued loose bits, finished polishing the lens, and cleaned the viewfinder and mirror. The mirror is a scary project, but I practiced on a parts Ikoflex first - which is leading me to re-silver the parts cameras mirror - this one's is fine and clean. I also got into leather conditioning, sewing, polishing, & non-stardard repair (stainless steel hinge & strap) for the original case. Loaded with Kentmere 400. Did all the same to a Yashicaflex.
