After months of frustration, I finally sorted out my film advance repair process
I used to dread working on film advance mechanisms because the springs would always fly out. It took me forever to get them back in place without losing parts. But I watched an old repair video and learned a trick with tweezers and masking tape. Now I can do it in half the time, and it's such a relief.

Tweezers and masking tape sound good in theory but I've still had springs slip out with that method. I actually find a small flat head screwdriver works better to hook the spring into place before you close things up. The key is keeping light pressure so it can't jump away. What kind of camera are you working on?
