Removing toilet to find clog

I have plunged and snaked the toilet but could not find clog. I want to remove it and am not sure how. Please help by telling me what to do once the bolts are removed. Thank you.

Turn off the water supply under the tank. Flush the toilet to get as much water as possible out of the tank. Use a wet/dry vac or towels to get the remaining water out of the tank and bowl. Remove the supply tube that goes from the valve to the tank. Remove the nuts that hold the toilet to the floor. Have a piece of plastic or large piece of cardboard readt to lay the toilet on. Lift the toilet off the bolts and CAREFULLY lay it on it's back. You will need to clean any remaining wax seal off the bottom of the toilet and floor flange. You will need a new wax seal for reinstalling and I would suggest getting new bolts also. Good luck.
