I have just finished unpotting a deceased NST by the same method, ie upside
down with an old-fashioned wire element hotplate on the upturned bottom.
Only mine took about 30 hours to free up and slide out. I dumped it in
mineral turps for another day and . . . . . . . . . . one clean, working NST
:^D
I had read before about this method of resurrecting dead NSTs but was
skeptical at first !
