Can the hubs be separated from the drums fairly easily or are they pressed on ?

They are not pressed on, but they might be rusted on! It might take a few blows with a BFH to vibrate them apart after the 3 small machine screws are removed...

Thanks Mike B , there are no screws on this one but I am going to try to separate them. It will make make cleaning them way easier as they will fit in my blasting cabinet. thumbs_up
