I wonder if and how the OP got his camera fixed? He was last seen on the same day as he posted the thread on Nov 14, 2014, having then made one more post on the subject that day

Y'all gonna love this, I was holding the camera and briskly waking, and the rewind knob fell off, the shaft still in one pice dropped inside. Couldn't pull up with pliers because they would slip off the shaft, then trying to pull up so let the shsft drop all the way but now there is not enough room to get a crochet hook positioned correctly. And the cost to source a new rewind shaft and or know is around $30 at current time., should I make this a parts camera, wait out the high price, any other suggestions?
Apon clover inspection it looks like I managed to pull up on the rewind shaft that I was able to get the spring lodged in the hole for the rewind shaft, I assume because if zi angle the ca.era just right I see silver under the brass snap ring and the 5mm crochet hook won't fit but 3mm hook will fit.

Would loctite 222 work to keep the rewind knob in place?
