    How do you break the axle loose from the hub? Video shows him just tapping it with a bronze hammer and it comes loose.
    This isn't the experience I'm having.

    All the things!
    I put a board over the axle (2x4) and used a BFH to smack it, until it backed out. It's going to take some serious whacks to get it to move.

    I second this method. I used something else, but the concept is the same.
