Hello therpf members, this is my first post onto this amazing website, but i have been reading the posts here for years. I have finally started on one of my dream projects and would like to ask a few questions and hopefully get some help. I recently purchased a graflex 3 cell flash and want to get into jedi worthy shape. It shows some age, but i like this since it was made a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. However, it needs some attention to make it nicer. It came with the blast tech Luke ANH kit assembled on it. I would like to put a more accurate bubble strip on it, and look into getting some plastic grips (i am okay with the D-ring). Any ways here are my questions:
1. the "bunny ears" section at the top swings left and right, it is pretty loose. Is there any way to tighten this or stabilize it?
2. the attachment of the top half to the clamp, as well as the attachment of the bottom half to the clamp is fairly loose. It wobbles when held in the hand. is there anyway to tighten this up or fix it with modification?
3. is there any way to find the tiny screw that would have been on the graflex clamp (that held the clamp on to the top half)? I know people usually take this off in their conversions, but i feel it may help with some of the wobbly-ness. Perhaps someone would have one laying around they don't want/need any more?
Thanks again for any help and advice . I am looking forward to working on this project and learning more about the hobby.
