Not really...The 21FBP22 had a safety glass by design, but it wasn't glued to the screen. The safety glass on a FBP is held on by the front fingers of the mounting band and a rubber gasket around the perimeter.
Really it's a still 21FJP22 just without a safety glass.

I've done a few 21FJP to FBP conversions and I always reinstall a safety glass...but not always the one it came with...

I feel your pain. The majority of RCA cataract removals I've done ended up like that...It sucks having broken glass and in my case having to come up with replacement safety glass (though the first couple of times I was lucky enough to have dud CRTs to pirate from).
Did this happen from a slip up with the water method?
