I've given up with that nut for the moment. It's quite soft and could easily be turned down to the threads on my lathe.
I've done some more dismantling. I don't much fancy stripping these off, reassembling, and repeating the process in the summer to repaint. I may have to figure out a way to paint in my cold garage.
The saddle now lifts off easily. I need to clear some bench space....
