if you dont want to keep the freewheel you can take it off pretty easy.
use a dot punch or edge of a screw driver, light/hard taps at the dotted part, i think theyre threaded the other way to normal. undo that, lift the cassette off, vice, big adjustable spanner or grips on the bit thats left, give it some force and off it comes.
otherwise find wonky tool. theres a place in brighton called freedom bikes which has loads of unusual cassette tools and will have it removed for £5 while you wait
