[Jukebox-list] Seeburg Symphonola turntable/shaft question

Jim,
I got a strong light and a good magnifying glass and looked at the bottom of
the shaft. I have the one screw, but sure enough, the head of the second
screw has been sheared off somehow. I'm going to have to drill it out to get
the clutch body off the shaft and the shaft out of the mech. Like I said, my
eyesight is not as good as it was when it comes to looking at this stuff up
close so I never saw that it was a broken screw. I just wish I knew how it
happened.

Which brings me to my next question. Anyone got a worm gear for this mech -
the one that meshes with the 5 inch drive gear - that they can part with?
Forty years of a gunked up mech took it's toll on the one that's in there
now and it's practically worn smooth.

Aaron
