Help with bottom bracket removal

[Zeppelin99]

I'm trying to remove my bottom bracket. I order the crank puller from amazon and that worked to get the crank arms off. Now I'm trying to remove the bottom bracket yet there seems to be what I think is a spacer sealed on the drive side blocking me from using my bracket removal tool.
Here's some pics. I just need to know if it is a spacer and if so, how do I remove it?

You need a special tool. Watch this video to determine your type of bottom bracket.

After a bunch of research online I found out it's a fixed cup. I've tried for the past 6 hours to remove it without that tool and I've never been so angry in my life. Finally called the quits and now I'll have to buy a third f$#@ing tool that I'll only use once to remove a cap

Maybe not, you might be able to make one. Half way down the page here:

Look for "Fixed Cup" and Fixed Cup Tools. There's a good chance it's a left hand thread!

I do have a vice but I have a feeling the fixed cup flats are too narrow for the vice to actually get a good grip on it. I'll give it a try though and if not I'll make a trip over to the hardware store and try the bolt and washer trick

IT WORKED!!! used the vice clamp and a rubber mallet and finished it off with a large adjustable wrench.
Thank you!

Just an update. Everything's done and installed except my external controller I'm waiting to arrive. Took it for its first ride yesterday. Drives amazing and could not be happier with the result. Cant wait for the controller to arrive to be finally complete!
