Update: Yesterday I finally managed to get the steering wheel off using the Ultradog method. Chalk up one for the Good Guys!
I originally tried making a sleeve out of a 2 PVC coupling, because these were cheap in the hardware store, and an 8-long x2 ID steel pipe nipple was $13 with tax (!) Readers be advised that this didn't work. The PVC is simply too plastic, and it bent, and finally broke. I next found some 2 steel pipe on our property, and fashioned a sleeve the way Ultradog intended. An angle grinder w cutting blade is the way to go in making that.
I had to crank the heck out of the 3-jaw gear puller, using a cheater bar on my ratchet. But, the steering wheel finally broke loose (suddenly, with a loud BANG!). The plastic bottom of the steering wheel is now severely deformed from the massive pressure applied. It could, however, be trimmed, and put back on. Or, as I'm doing, an aftermarket wheel can be found for a 6610S on ebay cheapest, or in other places, with prices ranging from $34-60.
Next up is trying to remove what's left of the old, rusty muffler, to be able to remove the tin over the engine, to be able to get at the instrument-panel tin, to remove that & get at the chewed-up wiring. It's been cold, so I'll have to wait till it warms a bit.

Today's Featured Article - Harvestin Hay: The Early Years (Part 2) - by Pat Browning. The summer of 1950 was the start of a new era in farming for our family. I was thirteen, and Kathy (my oldest sister) was seven. At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
