You repeatedly say “if you choose to do the repair yourself, it’s on you. Well I see now why you say that. I was following your video about a Bolex camera repair and was getting impatient with the speed/care you were taking so I stopped your video and moved forward with my Bolex repair on my own. The motor wasn’t running so when I attempted to take the motor out the whole camera went flying and pieces flew every where! I received a cut to my arm and now have a box of parts.
Frustrated and bruised, I went back and finished watching your Bolex repair video. Lessons learned, 1. it’s on me 2. LISTEN TO PAUL. Thank you for all of your very informative videos
@@IknowsPickin Hi,
Bolex cameras are meant to be serviced by a knowledgeable technician. The spring must be fully wound down (before) dismantling the camera.
And even then the spring within it's clutch motor barrel is prewound to a point. Dismantling the Bolex otherwise can damage gears, break it's spring including that to the person working on it.
As I point out in my videos these repairs take time. This is also why customers call service technicians asking "what's taking so long with my camera".
A Bolex (or most any vintage movie camera) is made of many types of metals. The technician is working with rusted and corroded screws, springs, tiny parts and gears etc. I even have a video showing the power of a Bolex H-16 spring that jumps out of the clutch motor barrel. And when that clutch barrel hits the floor and wall at high speed it bends it. Then it's useless. Patience and experience is the only key when servicing/repairing vintage movie cameras. Hope your ok, for viewing and for the kind words.

Here's my video on a much easier method of winding down a stuck Bolex spring motor on a H-16.

Here's my video showing a Bolex main spring within it's clutch motor barrel flying out. This is showing the "power" of that spring either during removing it or installation.
Usually a service technician would use a device known as a "Spring Winder". This device is for re-installing the spring. The spring is placed into the winder along with the clutch motor barrel.
Then the spring is wound down small. After that the Spring Winder inserts the spring into the barrel. This is a hand operated machine usually used by in clock repair. Here's my video showing the power of a Bolex H-16 spring flying out of the clutch motor barrel.
