RE: stubborn drum



If the only goal is to re-use the hub (keep in mind the LH studs are 
getting harder to find), I've removed the hub from the drum with a very 
large hammer, the "swing-away" sign, and several 4 letter words (e.g. 
heck, darn, crud).  Drum and all studs are destroyed using this 
"process."
