Dissecting and Recording
A bit late and this blog does not like to be published with pictures by mobile, but I'll sum up what happened during the past 2 weeks.
May have realized that disassembling the entire camera may have one too many parts to do when you have no place to properly disassemble it, but luckily found the spot to do it a week later and now here we are.
The disassembly was not actually so bad, I enjoyed taking it apart, it was pretty cool seeing how everything clicked in together and how everything is held together. Up until when I discovered I couldn't take off the top casing because it's painfully being held on by 2 microscopic screws in the worse place possible, and now I am just stuck with a partially disassembled camera.
Ar Partial breakdown of the film roll lever.
Here under the Film recall lever, We see our two little bloody screws in their natural habitat.
Other than that, I have been meticulously been measuring and rendering what I had so far, until Rhino for some reason decided that I was working in inches not millimeters, and then thought it leave me a farewell gift of corrupting all my objects and I had to start somewhat all over. Great content.
It was a bit of a struggle, but now since I have settled down, somewhat figured out my workflow, and getting the gist of rendering with accuracy, I hopefully will catch up to speed and hopefully finish this project on time.
I've also recorded myself disassembling the camera, so by the end of this project there be a nice video to look back to of me disassembling and reassembling the camera. And also as a last line of safety if I lost or forgot any parts.
Here's some screenshots and pictures of notes and drafts of what I have so far, I've finished the bottom casing and screws, the battery cover, the casing of the lens adapter, and just about finishing the shutter dial. And also because this is an already broken film camera, I am thinking about whether or not if I should cut the wires to access the remaining components but hopefully not.
The Drafting Board so far.
The Battery Cover in Shaded Mode and in Render Mode.
Battery cover and screws fitted into the casing.
The Casing itself.
Shutter Dial just about to be done, Waiting to finish the screw that hold it into place.
This is the Shutter Speed Dial and the top side and the bottom side.
This is the lens docking bit at the front of the camera. Rendered and shaded.
Here's the original component, it's pretty satisfying how the two fit flush to each other.
