Received recently (Thanks ,Larry )a Mir 26B wich is in two pieces ,for my P6 . The helicoid unscrewed . I'd like to put it back , so ,maybe one or more of you can help.
And what grease should I use for the helix ?

keep trying

If it is the helicoid you are trying to put back together is just a matter of finding the right combination and for that the only solution is patience.

After all , I found the patience to screw it back in one piece .But it is not in the proper position . I am afraid that I'll have to open it from the rear ?
Tomorrow I'll verify on the P6 to see how it works as it is , using the loupe and the matte focusing screen
