Frankenkenzie! You've had more luck than me. The rewind button/shaft on the Durst is still sticking, I can't take it out of the camera because of a busted screw. The new Ikonta shutter arrived, it is very similar to the one I need but not exactly. I could mount it on the SI IV and it would work, although the meter would no long be of any use as it's marked in EV only. The focus helicoid is the same pitch but a slightly different diameter, so the rangefinder would work. Might just do it and try it out.
