Your little tool at the 10 minute mark is called a 'trim removal tool' in the UK. Usually shortened to 'trim tool'. Used to lever trim panels - usually plastic or vinyl-covered hardboard - away from metal door interiors and the like. You're welcome!! 🤣

So close and nearly identical but that particular one is called a tack lifter. I think the difference is how close to the business end the bend is. Glad we're all here watching Dan brother :-)
@mayhemsmaster50503 ай бұрын
Absolutely correct sir, you can buy them individually, and there are some "kits" that contain every size, dimension, metal and plastic... probably in any color that you can imagine. Some them are fantastic for "releasing" some of the lovely connectors in engine bays. Lights, interiors pieces, you would be amazed on tje vast array of uses for those puppies.

I sure wish more places had those ditch things you can drive in to to tarp your load. That way if you fall off the trailer you don't fall further than the floor of your trailer. I've seen lots of people get hurt from falls at work. Stay safe Dan and Bailey.

It's called a trim tool. Used for the clips for door panels in Automobiles, and the various plastic push-in Christmas tree type fasteners to secure underbody panels, wheel well liners, plastic cover (beauty panels) in automobile engine compartments. Also many of the newer wiring harnesses incorporate a cable tie with a christmas tree type of fastener, that just pushes into an opening in the frame or fire wall to secure the wiring harness. They also make a plastic head version of the tool for removing various panels and dash trim in automobiles, where you don't want to scratch the finish. It's a very versitile tool and quite inexpensive.
