A big thanks to Peter for advice on removing the bottom plate of the Ikonta. He suggested turning the film advance wheel in a clockwise direction to undo it. This worked but for those who need to do this, be warned that there is a tiny shaft attached to the rewind release button which must be removed first. I didn't know this and broke it off at the edge of the button. It still works but I will need to drill out the broken bit to see if I can catch enough remaining threads to re attach it. I was able to remove the film advance ratchet and recut the two teeth with a fine file. The ratchet works beautifully now and I am ready for a working test to see if I have fixed the frame skips. Here is a picture of the button and the rewind wheel. Luke Modified post to correct counterclockwise to clockwise. Thanks for pointing it out Peter.
