Substitute whale oil is jojoba. But if I ever need shutter work, I'll let a pro do it. Silicone (not silicon) can cause all kinds of problems if it accidentally gets on the wrong material, and lots of hardware store (vs industrial) versions are worthless junk brands.
Among other responses to your question, modern Compur 0 and 1 shutters have 1/3rd click stops and, on the rear of the shutters, there is a gear wheel and screw hole that allowed users to add a setting stick that allows you to set the apertures from behind the camera. Some versions also accepted a stick to also set shutter speeds from behind the camera.Excuse my large format ignorance but what is the difference between these two types of shutters?
