I'm looking at a Peter Pan spring barrel and it looks like it is soldered shut. Am I correct in this assessment? Hints/tips on disassembly are appreciated. Right now I'm thinking that I should soak it to soften the grease, get as much of it out as I can and then start gently warming the top cover with a torch (outside, I might add). Fortunately they provide a notch where I can try putting in a small screwdriver and where I imagine the grease is/was added after assembly.
Thanks, Ron L
