365 Day 292: Camera Porn: Black Paint Zorki 6 with a Voigtlander 35/2.5 Color Skopar "C" Lens

Done!

I dont think I'll ever do another one of these things. These cameras are surprisingly well made, but a bit convoluted, way more parts then you would expect. It was a nightmare all the way through. I do want to do a couple more colors and now that I've done this one, i think it will be cake if I do anymore.

Things Ive learned in the past 48 hours:
- Always use fresh spray paint
- Clean nozzle more often then I do
- Always use some sort of primer, no matter what anyone says
- more magnetic screw drivers
- more tweezers
- more gloves
- more soft work lights
- More ventilation
- A lot more patience

365 Day 290: Camera Porn: Dismantled Zorki 6 Rangefinder Camera

This isnt as much a "Picture of the Day" as it is a cry for help. I dont know what compels me to do these things, but I must. This is my lastest project, CLA and repainting my Zorki 6.

And so it begins, (possibly) another lesson in futility.

To be continued...
