More than a couple of tense moments!
I visited BobL again this afternoon and took along the workhead body with its pressed in stator. Bob had suggested knocking the stator out after heating the housing. On inspection he deemed that a risky procedure due to the probability of damage to the very fine windings. I took the thing home and partially parted then sawed off the end. I could not risk pulling the body out of the chuck, as it was I snapped off the narrow parting blade I started using.
I'll take a few close up shots of the windings tomorrow.
