@jond THANX! How did you do that?
That is the point exactly @lewm. You can break off styluses and snap cantilevers but you should not be able to do this. Peter did not tell me what the problem was but obviously there was a construction error. M question is, what force caused it to twist? There was no accident. I suspect that putting the stylus down at the beginning of the record on the lip which is slopped did it.
