Heck it's base plate off, immediately between the teeth, film change and base plate returned in nothig flat! :-) And trust me I've never lost one nor had to dig around looking for it in my bag or pockets. :-) And no I've never swallowed one! ;-) Now the RapidWinder? Naw it doesn't work between the teeth, but hard pressed I bet one could under extreme conditions. ;-) But Tom doesn't warranty your teeth! ;-) ted - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
