Hello there
I recently acquired a 1936 Carl Zeiss Jena Sonnar 2.8/180 lens.
It really need cleaning (fungus) and lubrication(stiff focusing).
Is there any link for how to take this lens apart?
Thanks in advance

Hello, sorry for my bad english, it's like that!...
Let me tell you that you have a terrific lens! Congratulations.
Unfortunately there is nothing on the web about his complet dismantel. I'm looking after since few weeks.
Anyway, the first part of dismantel is easy. And it become complicated.
First you have to unscrew the tripod barrel. The back with tripod ring.
Then unscrew tiny screw on focus ring. It's a typical way

I've recentlly opened up my Sonnar 135mm Zebra. What can I say? It's a real pain in the a..e.
The blades were stuck. After I've unscrewed the aperture block all the blades flown away. I've spend 3 days accumulating patience and time to put them back wich is a very Sisif operation unless you have the proper tools, which I haven't. I invented/inovated some.
I did one mistake, though.
I didn't mark the entry point so I can't focus to infinity. I have to repeat the operation. Part of it.
I have the 180mm Zebra which has the same problem: aperture stuck. This is the next week programmed.
I've unscrewed only the back rear just to have an idea.
So, before starting tear apart entirely your lens, try to replace the springs/spring especially the one who pull back the aperture lever.

Have you ever try this job? I've opened some german aperture and it's not so difficult if you take the time. Be patient!
This http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Wattenstaafjes.jpg can help you, for maintain or push the blades.
Good luck!

Like I said, I did it but I had to invent some tools, and it's not about q tips.

You know what?? Now I know than the 2 internal glass are completly dependant of the optical barrel.
It means that you CAN'T dissmantel them (the iris too 
)!
This is an iron block without any screw possibility.
The glass seems to be (moul
