Not true Tony - pots are standard manufacture and are widely available and in all the various mounting configs used by pretty much all manufacturers. There is nothing proprietary about them at all.
Beaky,
Send it to Miden, he'll repair it...

I am not going to argue with you Miden, I have only been in electronic manufacturing for the last 40 years, what would I know about the subject

Beaky don't no what all the fuss is about you, you've not got to the pot yet, tells us what it looks like when you get to it, 2013 no doubt, it will end up in the trash can, I'll be bound, something are not meant to come apart easily, you will find little plastic clips that you didn't know were there will break off, Doh these things are not real engineering jobs, now if you had bought a G70 there is a different animal, you need power tools to take that apart, build like a tank.

you do what you have to do Beaky but you have been warned.
