Henry -I did successfully get my potentiometer open last nite, and was able to substitute resistors to get a 100K log taper with 60db total (the original was a 20 step / 60db 20M dual)
Actually I was able to get the pin out with a single hit of an appropriate sized punch. I needed to hit the end with the 3 small "crimps" visible.
If you still can't get yours disassembled I can give it a try for you. I'm not sure I'm up to replacing the resistors (took me about 2 1/2 hours total, somewhat tedious), but once they are apart it's pretty easy. Re-assembly was also very straight-forward.
