SBLOO Finder

I did some searching on how to get inside a SBLOO finder and I saw a few post saying you go in from the front which makes sense. My question is and before I do anything. Once you remove the big glass in the front does the back smaller circular frame line window come out as well? I imagine its held in place by the same glue as the main big piece of glass?

As I recall, everything is held in place by the front glass. I disassembled mine and cleaned it after I got it a few years ago. It wasn't very difficult.

Thanks for the reply! Just have to search up what I can use for glue/cement for when I put glass back in.

I remember clearly that, in removing the front glass, I only softened the tar-like adhesive holding it in place enough for the lens to come out. I was probably using alcohol as the solvent. I didn't remove the adhesive completely. I softened up the adhesive again before putting it all back together. The old adhesive stiffened up again as it dried and it's been holding together just fine for several years now.
