Hello, I am working on rebuilding/restoring a Konica C35 and managed to blow a bit of solvent in between the front lens element group the rear group came out without a problem (its a cemented pair) but the front element group (Picture #1, Picture #2) is giving me problems. There is a set of spanner pinholes on the rear piece, as well as a pair of set screws which were sealed with a bit of white lacquer that I have removed. There are spanner slots on the brass threaded part. I have tried various combinations on the spanners as well as a ring wrench on the front rim. Nothing seems to budge. If anyone knows how this group is supposed to dissassemble and could pass along a bit of advice I would really appreciate it!
