Trying to remove a plywood blade, and when I lodge a piece of hard maple

any tricks? Help!

Had that problem with the factory blade on my shiny new Crapsman TS. I
bought one of those Blade-Loc flummies from LV, and all it did was get
turned to orange shreds. I tried wood (various woods, various sizes) under
a tooth. I could eventually wrench hard enough to saw through the wood, or
break it.

What finally worked was a steel rod hooked in one of the gullets and
spanning the throat. I think it was 1/4" rod, and I bent the hell out of
it before I finally got the blade loose.
