OK I've read a couple posts of what to do but no luck so far. Have tried PB Blaster, heat , and force with no luck. I just added some WD-40. A side problem is the when I put a wrench to the shaft the whole thing turns.   So I guess I will let it sit a little while longer and if the rust buster doesn't help the next step is to remove it. 
 I originally picked it up to use the chassis for another project that never happened. It's getting close to the junk me pile.

 Does anyone have any recommendations? Bandswitch # 42-1046.

                                    Thanks,
                                         Henry
