    Cloth shutter repair

    I have a vintage camera with a torn cloth shutter. I want to repair it. Can anyone give me any pointers to repairing shutters? The camera is a 1937 Jhagee so I will have to make parts, any hints will be most appreciated.

    I have the necessary tools to take it apart, I also mess with watches so the idea of tearing into a camera doesn't worry me.

    Primarily, I'm a snapshooter, occasionally I will accidentally get a good photograph.

    Nikon D40, Nikon 35mm f1.8, Nikon 18-55mm, Quantaray 70-300mm (Tamron AF 70-300mm F4-5.6 Di LD rebadged by Ritz/Wolf), SB-400

    Also currently using:
    Kodak Pony 135
    Vivitar XM300 APS camera
    Minolta Freedom Zoom 130 Date
