[OM] Big progress

I am pleased to report that I have fixed the jammed shutter.  I used a
technique with which I am quite familiar.

1) remove bottom cover, taking care not to lose little screws
2) poke around until the shutter will wind
3) put the bottom cover back on

OK, so I don't exactly know what was caught, but the self-timer was
partially wound, so I suspect it was related.

Works fine now at all speeds and the self-timer works too.  I suspect just a
small piece of grime.

Now on to the top!

Tom
