Thanks for all the input!
I'm fairly well set up for tools, pullers, heat etc, and I always leave the nut on the threads when I'm pulling flywheels or harmonic balancers. It's just a really good idea to hear about best practices from The Listers. Thanks again, everybody - I'll let you know if anything entertaining happens!

I want to remove the propeller from my 35-3. It's a fixed 3-blade (15 R 14), and I'm looking for a folding prop. I have a line on a used one, but want to be sure about shaft fit etc. The question is: how do I brace the shaft to get the nut off? Put it in gear? Put a pipe-wrench to the anode on the shaft? Or just grip the prop well enough to loosen the nut? And when the nut's off, will the prop come off as easily as the one on my outboard, or will I need a puller? Any tips would help. Thanks in advance.
