Hi

I have ALMOST managed to strip down my 14" SB 45. I have been stuck trying to break down the rear roller for more than a day.
The drive side half of the roller was relatively easy to remove. However, the non-drive side has been a problem.
I have tried to remove the bearings, but they have not budged. I even soaked them in degreaser overnight.
So I reverted to removing the pawl holder to attack it from that side.
My problem is that I have not been able to remove the woodruffe key. I have attempted all the various suggestions in the Bonnar Bible without any luck. All I appear to be doing in messing up the key.
Would it be worth trying to drill or grind out the key?
Your suggestions appreciated.
Regards
Foles
