The Weston Master IV I've carried for twenty years as a back up to my main camera has died on me. I didn't need to use it much. However, as I've been getting into other photo projects I need my meter. So, I found I could buy a new selenium cell for it (the usual fault). I set to and stripped the meter down to replace the cell. I nearly did it. I've managed to get it stripped to the plate which holds the cell against its window. The problem I have is that there appear to be 4 screws holding in the plate. Two at the top (scale end) are easy to remove, but two screw posts at the meter movement end I can't see a way to remove. The two screws in question act as guides for the meter clamp mechanism. A sliding plate pushed by the slide switch on the meter side run on, and are held by these two posts. They have no flats, so I can't turn them. Neither can I remove the slide plate. Does anyone know, or know anyone who might know, how to remove the plate?
