ABSTRACT:
A multi-purpose hand tool apparatus includes an elongated shank, a first U-shaped tool attached to a first shank end portion, a second U-shaped tool attached to a second shank end portion, and a jack retainer attached to an elongated shank on an intermediate shank portion. The jack retainer is attached to the top side of the elongated shank and may be in the form of a bucket. The second U-shaped tool is comprised of a single, unified U-shaped tool member which is oriented at an oblique orientation angle with respect to the elongated shank. A line connection assembly is attached to the intermediate shank portion and includes a base member connected to the intermediate shank portion, a line hook, and a pivot pin connected between the base member and the line hook. The line connection assembly is attached to the bottom side of the elongated shank. A flexible line assembly is connected to the line connection assembly, and a wall hook is connected to the flexible line assembly. The flexible line assembly includes a chain assembly connected to the line connection assembly. The wall hook is a single, unified U-shaped wall-hook member which has a free end and a connected end which is connected to the flexible line assembly. The embodiments of the invention can be used to twist a joist, pry pieces of wood apart, jack up a floor board, or push or pull a wall to provide desired wall alignment.
