Default turbo disassembly?

I wanted to disassemble my turbo. I've broken the shaft on a turbo before trying to take it apart. Before, I clamped the exhaust side and turned the compressor side nut counter clockwise and the shaft snapped. Can anyone give some advise as to how to disassemble a turbo?

just so everyone else knows, you turn it clockwise to loosen it.

No you don't.

Rightie tightie leftie loosie.

Just make sure you torque it smoothly. Don't yank on it. If it's tough, spray it with some pb blaster first.

You would really really have to crank on the shaft to snap it. lol
