Or, if you don't mind loosing the gear, just use a dremel and cut the gear (gear only, not the FP shaft), in half, then just pry apart. It's pretty time consuming but it doesn't require a gear puller or arbor press.
I don't have access to anything but a vice and hammer to remove/add gears. All i did was hammer on the gear (very carefully) and to take it off tighten the vice around the FP axel (but don't snug it) so that it's under the gear, and use a nail of other available metal rod to hammer out the motor shaft. This has worked well for me, but it requires patience and care, you can easily screw things up.

I will also add that I did this entire project with nothing more than my toolbox of tools and a hand drill, hehe, talk about match-drill...
