I have a Victor VV IV table top that the turn table does not want to come off. Any suggestions? Also what is a good method of cleaning the lead screw and half nut on an Edison cylinder machine? Thanks in advance, Charles

I ended up flattening the end of the shaft a bit but I was able to reshape it adequately on a lathe. I had been soaking it with PB Blaster and before that, WD 40 for ages and it would not loosen up. I even tried heating the TT a bit. When the method outlined below did not work, I resorted to what I described above. Usually, if you have someone hang on to the TT evenly a tap on the center spindle delivered by a second person will get the tt to separate. Don't let the motor drop too far or too fast.
