Hi JKC, As stated by Eldon, use a grinder with a thin blade and cut just above (couple thousandth's) the casting surface until you see a black line. This black line will be the seam between the two mated piece's. When you see the black line then your piece will come off very easy. Don't see a black line? Then your cutting too high or too low of the seam. Most welds will be about 1/8" deep penetration on both piece's. I agree that too much hammer on castiron will most likely break the castiron. Cut to the black line then use a very light tap, if needed. T_Bone
