remodeling for geeks

The Cats Paw.

This is a standard cats paw. About 12 ” with two claws to allow you to hammer below nails to pry them up, so you can remove nails and separate the studs and stuff that you are demoing.  This is an Orphan Tool. Really doesn’t do anything else.

This is a great tool when you are doing a partial wall demo for loosening bottom and top plates as well as corner and wall studs. But if you are doing a lot of demo, this is a great addition to your tool collection.

Japanese Cat’s Paw

Lighter, a little more elegant but the same tool.
