Gear/Flywheel Removal

This is a crude, but effective, way to get a flywheel off of an N Scale motor when even a wheel/gear puller fails. It works better if you use a paneling nail (instead of the ordinary wire brad I show in the video). It also works better if you use a plate made from stainless steel instead of ordinary steel like that shown in the video. You can get small pieces of stainless steel plate from a sheet metal company (look for shops in your town that do custom sheet metal work). They can also cut the notch in it for you.
