Brake drum stuck to axle

All,

What is the best way to remove a rear brake drum that is stuck to the axle? I made a puller that fastens to the lug nuts and pushes on the end of the axle (similar to what is shown in a service manual), but even though it pushed VERY hard, there was no movement.

Should I apply heat?

The car is a '49 super 8.
