I don’t have any other options hahaha I just have to do it. But they’ve worked well for me.

What matters is that it works.
I wish I had your skills.
I have an old Carl Zeiss Flektogon 35mm where the aperture blades stopped working.
Thankfully they stayed wide open, which is how I tend to use vintage glass anyway.
Would love to get it repaired though, but around here I would probably have to sell a kidney to pay for it, lol.

Exactly. But those lenses are mechanically very simple. It’s probably just dirt on the blades. Fortunately, you can still use it that way.

And that's what I'll do. Use it the way it is.
I am afraid to open it and end up with a few spare parts after assembling it back..
