Image below is the cross drive for a mini lathe. It is rusted solid.
I have soaked in WD40 for a couple of days and still stuck.
The arrows in green are points I can tap with hammer but dare not hit
too hard in case the `lug` breaks off.

Never used heat before on rusted items but would `hot air` paint
stripper gun work? I am not too bothered re the paintwork as I will be
repainting the main body before I re assemble the lathe.

Any other ideas?
