The Tech III takes a different board than all later Technikas. When looking for
lensboards be sure to specify your model... although uncommon, they are out
there.

What I don't know is about the lens boards, and really haven't found a
picture of one. Some are quite simple, but others can be quite
complex. If its just cutting the right size piece of metal and putting
the right size hole in the center, that I can handle. If there are
threads involved, it has light traps and other things as a part of the
lens board, that could get much tougher. Any help would be appreciated.
If I remember correctly, some shutters need, in addition to the big hole
to let the light get through, also a little one to accept an
anti-rotation pin (I do not know its real name). Now you can remove that
pin (it is actually just a little screw whose head sticks out), but it
is nice to have because if you screw on filters, lens shades, etc, you
may not want the lens moving.
Trouble is, I cannot remember if the Copal #1 is one of these, and I
cannot find my special tool to take the lenses off the lens-boards to
find out.
