I had the same problem.
What ended up working for me (after I hacked up the ring) was to use my air chisel/hammer at really low pressure - it vibrated the ring right off. This is one situation where repeated impact works when brute force doesn't.
If you haven't boogered up the ring and the fins yet - you might try using the plywood tool again and rather than wrenching on it - tap it with a rubber mallet, not so hard you break fins, but over and over. Might be easier with 2 people.
