Good maintenance to your Bike, can make it like the wheels are, true and smooth!
Thanks goiz for ya help.... not really. I removed the gears myself. For anyone ELSE who's actually interested in how to do this, for my particular gearset I had to use two very, very large pipe wrenches, one to hold the gears and the other to turn the OUTSIDE gear (smallest). It turns off just like a bolt. Once that gear is off the rest basically slide of with some motivation from yourself. There are spacers between each gear. Once it's off feel free to modify your bicycle to your content. For this particular thing I am trying to build an electric bicycle and I need this junk gearset to act as "Downsizer" for gear ratio.
Like I said, thanks!!
Except that this is
1) not the answer to "how do I remove the freewheel" as in the OP (except that it seems to be a cassette...)
2) the wrong tools for the job: use two chain whips (which would have been the answer to the question that has not been asked...)
