ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for cleanly and easily removing nails from drywall has a shaft portion with a narrowing portion having a first end attached to the shaft portion and a second end having a width narrower than the width of the narrowing portion first end. The narrowing portion and the shaft portion, in combination, are substantially flat. A prong is placed at an angle to the narrowing portion on the narrowing portion second end, and the prong has a width similar to the narrowing portion second end. Further, a radius portion near the shaft portion first end extends from the shaft portion or narrowing portion. The radius portion has a width similar to the narrowing portion first end and is rounded. The radius portion and the shaft portion form a gap area between the prong and the radius portion. A drywall installation and nail remover has a shaft portion and a prong placed on the shaft portion at an angle to the shaft first end. A slide is movably attached to the shaft portion so that the slide is moveable to partially cover the prong.
