[Jukebox-list] Seeburg Symphonola turntable/shaft question

[Aaron's Email]

That's another issue. I tried to do just that since it's the easiest
solution. There's a hole in the bottom of the turntable...where the shaft
goes into the turntable itself... but there's no screw holding the shaft TO
the turntable. I tried pulling the turntable off the shaft but it just won't
budge. I'll try and take some pictures of the entire mess and put them up on
a server. That way you can see what I'm talking about and it might help to
determine the best course of action here. You're right, Jim. Drilling out
the screw/pin/whatever it is would be a major pain in the neck, but I
honestly don't see any other options.
