ruining film with a shutter problem

I picked up some film today; it looks like I've got shutter problems with both of my beloved old X-700 cameras. Which is ruining my photos, naturally.

Now the dreaded bit: spending more on repairs to keep the cameras going. It's a labor of love in an era where the films themselves are disappearing from the market.
