Then I put the largest punch I had(it just fit into elbow) and whacked that with a hammer until it screwed out.

I think that cutting around the ring really helped.

Hope this helps

i did almost the same thing, but i used a VERY tiny and thin file and after a few good whacks, it came off without a hitch. jeff
