Abstract:

The pry bar is a tool for removing embedded fasteners or unwanted building materials having lever with a claw at one end and a handle fixedly secured along its top surface. The lever is an elongated, arcuate member that provides leverage to decrease the amount of force that needs to be applied to the pry tool. The claw is a bifurcated claw having a center notch for engaging embedded fasteners. The end of the lever having the claw has a sharp point to allow the pry tool to be wedged underneath of unwanted material. The handle is positioned in the center of the lever at the end opposite that having the claw. The handle is welded onto the lever to provide a secure fit. The lever may be made from recycle car leaf springs.
