I recently bought a cheapo used Ryobi drill press and wanted to replace chuck with something of more quality. I ended getting a used Jacobs 34-33 chuck since the new ones are made in China. It's the same Jacobs #33 taper that I need, but it came with this arbor I don't need. I'm trying to figure out a way to remove the arbor. Any ideas?

You'll need a taper drift. You can purchase one or, if you have the inclination, make one. It doesn't have to be hardened steel or anything, especially for one time use. Here's one on Amazon that popped up after a real quick Google search.
