""Now I have to figure out how I am going to get the big screw on top free. It is really stuck""

Clovis, is your knob's "big screw" through the wood like Bill's Photo?
if you can't remove it with a hand impact wrench, maybe you need to drill the screw-head off to remove the knob.
just replace the screw...   Any photos of the problem area?

I'm referring to the other screw near the handle. This is a nickel or chrome plated one with reeding on the screw head.

I don't really need to remove the knob handle, but that one is stuck too. I don't have an impact wrench.

Thank you for your advice and help!!!!

   I once took the better part of a year on a part.
It was the huge cast iron collar over the column on a radial arm saw. Big 12" saw with about a 4" diameter column.  The collar is around 8" long. 
It was rust welded rock solid. In a million years I never thought it would free up.

  I took the rest of it apart until I was just down to the column and collar. I left it under my carport in the driveway with a round of firewood.
 Everyday on my way to work I would stop and give it a squirt of penetrating oil, then thump it on the firewood block, and move on.
 I just became a habit. ... Squirt, thump, move on.   Had it down to 10 seconds.

 One day that collar just flew all the way down the shaft and hit the block with a huge thuuunnnnk.
  I almost had a heart attack right there!
 
  I have been using that saw ever since.
    stick with it!

Scott,

I have to say that I've been thinking about your story since Saturday. I bought two hay trolleys at an auction. Both are badly rusted, but one of them is....wow, just so rusted that parts are fused together.

Since I got them home, I've been using the ScottG method of "Squirt, squirt, tap, tap, tap, tap" method every time I walk by the thing.

I'm going to need all the encouragement I can get on these two carriers!!!!
