ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a device for removing woodwork and trim from the interior or exterior of buildings. Its function is such that damage to the woodwork, and to the wall from which it is removed, is minimized or eliminated. In operation, the device is first driven between the wall and the woodwork to be removed. A specially shaped bar is then inserted between the base of the device and a spring loaded lifter plate. When this bar is pivoted, the lifter plate is moved away from the base, wedging the woodwork loose. Since a relatively large surface area acts on the wall and the woodwork, gouging or other damage is unlikely. Removed trim pieces may be reinstalled or salvaged for use on other projects.
