The Rolleikin instructions says: "...Remove the top film knob from the camera
by unscrewing..."; it took me almost two hours to do it. I unscrewed two
screws pretty quick, but the last screw was a headache, I couldn't unscrew
it; my wife spending patience did it, I recalled the women assembling cameras
at the factories.
Yes Carlos, I visited the Rolleiflex factory in 2001 and 2003.

One of the tasks performed by women was assembly of the finder hood with its
delicate springs. Another lady was refurbishing System 6000 cameras. The camera
bodies were polished with a few drops of Glycerol.
