I have a VV 1-1, and here is how I removed the turntable. I would saturate the spindle with either penetrating oil, liquid wrench or Kroil. Let the oil seep into the spindle and the turntable. After a few hours, put a couple of small pry bars underneath the turn table. Do not force this!!!! Take a standard hammer and lightly tap the spindle. The turn table should pop off. You might have to use the oil in more than one application. The important thing is to be very gentle. These were very cheaply made machines, and delicate. This method will work on other machines with stuck turn tables.Harvey Kravitz

Apparently someone attempted to remove the platter on a VV 1-1 by prying and the platter is now warped. I was thinking of possibly using a press to apply pressure and placing a tack weld on the “high” side of the platter/hub connection. Would this work?Thanks.John "Once in the wilds of Afghanistan I lost my corkscrew, and we were forced to live on nothing but food and water for days." W. C.
