Hello I have been a long time watcher and recently joined the forum. Thank you to the users and administrator for the fantastic help provided over the years. I have two questions concerning my Crown Graphic Special. I would be very grateful for help/advice with one or both:

1) I removed the glass in my optical (top mounted) viewfinder to clean the rear of the element and the element fell out of the frame along with a 1" long flat spring. For the life of me I can't replace it in a way that it stays in place. My thought was this in pushed in under the glass at the bottom of the viewfinder but it's still too loose. Help!

2) The rangefinder cable will not extend far enough to contact the "plate" which is attached to the focusing rail. It sticks out about a half inch or less. I can't push it in or pull it out. The cable housing appears to be in perfect condition. Any thoughts?

Many thanks!
