removal of freewheel cogs?

So I have this condition where I really like to things apart as far as they can go. Call it couriosity.
That being said, I was wondering, however unuseful it might be, if cogs on freewheels can be removed.
I have one book that says it's so, using two chain whips. The book also says some freewheels have a
lockring outside the rear cog. Unlike freehub lockrings, the notches are on the outside of the lockrings
rather than the inside. I have a freewheel with such a lockring, and cannot find a tool to remove the
lockring. Is this meant to be done? Can it be done?

peace
