ABSTRACT:
A tool for removing gypsum board according to the present invention includes an elongated handle, a substantially flat extension extending from and attached to one end of the elongated handle, a hinge having a first side and a second side, affixed on the first side to the substantially flat extension and a pry flap affixed to the second side of the hinge. The pry flap will fold against the substantially flat extension when the tool is being pushed through the gypsum board, and a stop for holding the pry flap away from the substantially flat extension when the tool is being pulled back through the gypsum board. The stop holds the pry flap at approximately 80 degrees or substantially a right angle to the substantially flat extension and the pry flap is substantially the same width as the substantially flat extension. In one form, the stop forms a sharp angle with the end of the substantially flat extension opposite the elongated handle, forming a wedge for breaking through the gypsum board. In one form, the tool for removing gypsum board also includes a substantially flat stub out affixed at an angle to the substantially flat extension on the side of the substantially flat extension opposite the pry flap and substantially closer to the elongated handle than the pry flap.
