CRuDE Tool, Mark1
on: September 27, 2016, 04:13:41 AM
Here's my first take on a keychain prybar. Very crude idea but I have some other ideas for round 2.
It's made from a spare chisel I had already. I'm thinking that it will hold up to the prying/wedging tasks. It's pretty thick for a keychain tool, but I don't know the grade of steel.
Also My first attempt at creating a philips driver. Man, harder than I thought. It was supposed to be closer to a #2 but is more like a 3.
I'm not sure how functional the "nail puller" will be or if I would like a scraper profile better.

Thank you. I was thinking of a lobster claw when I was cutting the end open

Scraper for sure!

I've never liked cats paw type pry bars. Even the full size versions in the garage, they are never the right size and a Claw Hammer pulls nails just as fine without getting up and grabbing a different tool.

One thing I do like about it being split is that either point can turn a flat head screw..... kinda

Made a way to switch between pry bar and Phillips.

Prybar-slide key ring on its side-Phillips
I was wanting to keep it changeable, but not on it's own. It slides easily but does take effort.

Gave the nail puller a different shape. I will have some action pics soon. So far it has come in handy a few times this week. Not pretty, but I'm happy with the trial version. I will carry it for a month and see what changes I can make.
