Hello,

New guy to camera repairs here. I intentionally bought an Ikoflex 1 with a compur shutter that was in poor condition to learn how these cameras go together and practice disassembling, cleaning, and reassembling. After working on cars and other machinery over the years I found learning is less stressful with things that aren't expensive or are already broken. This camera fits both criteria.

I took the aperture apart (not sure how smart this was but here we are), and am wondering how this goes back together? The aperture assembly has ten blades. I've checked online but haven't found any information for this camera.

Thank you

Here's a basic strip down and reassembly of a compur shutter.
It may help you.
