Peter Wall in San Francisco, who sells his evaluation service ob ebay for $2.99

Above is a link to his service on eBay. I have used him twice, once last year that took a while to get my repro back, and once this year and got it back in 2 ½ weeks. FABULOUS job both times on the workmanship. Communication is sometimes good and sometimes not so good. PM me and I can give you his phone #. Also, send him the original brass ring from the rear flange, he reuses them an adds new rubber. Total cost both times was less than $50 and I would use him again. Just understand it sometimes takes him a while, and sometimes not.

Good luck.

Matt

I have also had very good results from Peter Wall.
