IDEAS NEEDED - How to take a freewheel off from a hub?

(1/6) > >>

diesel:
Ideas needed please

Got a very nice Rare 'low flange' hub here:

It has a Shimano freewheel on and I don't want to damage the hub 'at all'.

As its low flange - I cannot re-lace it with the freewheel on.

Any ideas welcome, before I go to work on it

monkian:
I think someone on here cut one off with a dremel ???
I've got a similar problem so wouldn't mind knowing how it's done.

diesel:
My rough plan is to cut and drill a piece of wood to hold the hub in a vice without damaging it

A bit like this:

moomin:
This is going to sound extremely thick but have u not got a freewheel remover?

If not i think my dad will have 1 which u could borrow, save time and hassle surely :daumenhoch:

Munnyella:
I take it the hub is not still in the wheel? if this is the case, you will be extremely lucky to remove the free wheel without damaging it. If you are careful, the hub should be ok.
