Removing a Freewheel

Peeps,

Any tips on removing a freewheel that feels like it has been welded on?   :tickedoff:

Is the correct tool essential (I think I can answer that myself), and if so, does anyone have a four toother they can lend me? Happy to cover postage in both directions and I only need it for probably 1 minute!  :daumenhoch:

All input gladly received by this nOoB!  :-[

Thanks,

Clean.  :daumenhoch:

You'll prob need more than just the tool. Last one I had stuck fast I had to put on the tool, screw an axle nut and washer on the the axle to fix it in position then clamp the tool in a vice and turn the wheel. Never been able to remove one from an old wheel with just the tool  :-\
