Make a large bolt with left hand threads that will go through the head stock spindle hole and be secured at both ends of the faces at the spindle hole. With that bolt you can hold fast the spindle and unscrew the chuck. With this method you will not be using gears, slipping strap wrenches etc. that could break something or at least get you high blood pressure. This method will just hold the spindle. The only down side is you will need to make the left hand threaded bolt. And sorry, a right hand thread will not work…Dave
