Well, it doesn't need to come apart entirely, the shutter, lens, and rangefinder strut pulled out as a unit once I got the front element off and undid a series of screws. John says in the above link the disassembly is "totally obvious"... I'm a little dense maybe but I'd say it was just pretty intuitive. I'd recommend noting the position of the aperture/shutter speed rings before taking them off, (watch out for that little ball bearing for the click stops) a general mindfulness and paying attention... particularly when unscrewing the helix! You can save yourself several hours of REALLY tedious trial and error on that one. It's doable though and worth doing.
