Subject: [CR]Regina Freewheel Surgery - advice needed

In an effort to remove an old freewheel from a rimless hub:

1. removed the Regina Extra's three outer cogs 2. built a jig to hold the hub by the flange holes 3. Gripped the jig in a vice 4. tried to remove the retainer with a VAR pin tool

I immediately cracked both pins.

Is the retainer left-hand threaded.

If so, what's the next step?
