I’m a 25 year old carpenter apprentice in Canada. I have watched Scott go on about Burke bars on KZbin for years now and found one at a garage sale for $20. I jumped at it immediately. THANK. YOU. SCOTT. This bar is a machine. I love it. My whole crew loves it. I haven’t touched my roofing pry bar since. I love this channel so much, it has changed the way I approach and appreciate my job. “Aim for perfect, settle for excellence.” You said it, man. Cheers

[@mdeamicis]

I bought one shortly after the first time seeing one in use in this channel. Always in my truck and used often. The eastwig 16 inch 3 in 1 pro roofer is a mini burk bar with a catspaw that you can put in a flatbar sleeve hanging inboard of your gastner bag.

Your comment that really stood out for me is: "When you are working by yourself". My entire working career, I was always happier when I was working by myself. I guess I'm just not a person who needs to be part of a team. I've never needed to be entertained. Just love to do the work.

[@charlesstevens8913]

Never even heard of a Burke Bar 'til I watched this channel, and the BB saved my keister in tearing apart a 25 year old deck that I was rebuilding, which was 32' x 16'. Used during the Covid fiasco when it was hard to find labor willing to even bid on the job...which I didn't want to do (I was 75 y.o. at the time)....it made the job so easy that I found myself laughing half the time, and it probably saved my wife the grotesque experience of having to give me mouth-to-mouth first aid!! Used it on several 'one-off' type situations, and it was better than having a second person to help. Also, depending on your neighborhood, it's not a bad thing to have sitting near the front door of your home! Great tool to make me feel like I had the strength of 2 or 3 men!

[@tmontel2116]

I've been watching you since your first circular saw video 5+ years ago. I haven't seen you on my feed in a year or so and here you are. You haven't aged a day friend.

One thing with the flat bar: if you're using the hook/90° end and it's flexing when pulling the normal way, you can pull inline with the flat section (90° to normal) and it's much more Ridgid that way. Helps a lot with longer/cheaper bars.

[@bkh1324]

I generally end up prying in this fashion the majority of time I use a flat bar. Mabey it's because I'm on ladders alot. Pulling down instead of pushing away feels safer I reckon.

[@rd-ch1on]

I would add the bee keepers bar/ window glazier bar to your list. Excellent multipurpose small pry bar that fits in your tool bag.

[@krenwregget7667]

agreed. When I got into finish carpentry and then cabinets, a glazing bar was my go to because it was thin, flat and wouldn't mar the surface of what I was prying on.

[@thinktank8286]

[@rd-ch1on]

@@thinktank8286 do a search for "Richard Tools 10 inch pry bar" . It's 10 inches long x 1.5 inches wide, painted red. Originally they were used by beekeepers but now are also used for a wide variety of things.

I would say my glaziers bar sees the most use, and the burke bar is the most indispensable. Most of those levers have a workaround, but in my experience there is nothing else that will do the work of a burke bar. I owe you for bringing the existence of that tool to my attention. Thank you Scott..

[@ClintL63]

I bought one new! I climbed above a 35 ft poured wall set and i heard Tink tink tink! me NEW bar went down to the bottom! I say it funny, but cost me 17 bucks! it is in the Arauco plant in Grayling Mich; its like some sort of monument! LOL!

[@ronmcrae7216]

After watching you I finally found a mini burk bar with a 4 foot handle and it really handy. Thanks for the content.

[@AlanTheBeast100]

A small "Lever Bar Scraper" should be in all tool bags. Indeed I keep a few around the house. Small, light, thin and useful for all kinds of situations when doing maintenance, paint prep work, furniture repair, etc. and so on. Tremendous leverage for levelling cabinets (lift corner, adjust screw foot) and so on. Or as a wedge to hold something spread while setting another part. (This is a smaller and thinner version of what you call a "flat bar" or "door bar"). Has a decent scraper on one end too.

[@chriswest1996]

Love what you call the "Dig out bar". Not only will it pull a finish nail...it will pull a broken off nail. No head required!

[@doaimanariroll5121]

I went 4x4ing with my friend(in his 4x4) a while back and we got a flat by running over a old railway dog. For some silly reason my mate didn’t have a jack. But he had an axe. I was so glad I had been shown how to improvise leverage by my my grandad. We chopped down a long tree, rolled over a big log, lifted up the corner of the car and changed the tyre.

[@krenwregget7667]

great video Scott. Your ability to communicate is a real gift to us, thank you.

[@BrittCHelmsSr]

Great review of bar tools. It really is about using the right tool for the job. My father-in-law will be 83 just three days before Christmas this year. He absolutely amazes me with his abilities and work ethic. He is a "work smarter, not harder" sort of guy and three years ago moved out of a 20 acre farmsite with a 40 by 60 shop, with my mother-in-law, to a lot not much bigger than the 2500 square foot two-story house that was on it. I was the benefactor of much of his downsizing of tools and equipment. He still amazes me at the things that he WANTS to do but is smart enough to get his sons and I, who are 25 years his junior, to accomplish on his behalf. Kudos, Allen I. Steele I used to watch a DIY show (back when This Old House was about the only option) called Help Around The House which was hosted by a fellow named Henry Harrison. He demonstrated one of those slide-handled nail removers, and I knew immediately that I needed on. It took some time to find one, but what a fantastically designed and built vintage tool that is to have in one's collection.

[@larkin1525]

This is definitely one of the most reviews I’ve seen of pry bars

[@tillerjets]

I am not a carpenter, but an excavation guy. I’d like to add to this list a digging bar, also known as a Fresno bar. Imperative for underground utility work and so many other things. From prying up cut asphalt, sending gasket jointed pipe home, digging in hard ground, lifting manhole lids or storm crates, or repairing equipment. Everyone needs a good 5’ digging bar in their collection.

[@donmunro7568]

I have been doing flooring for 33 years and one time we had to move a large fire safe. It was so heavy it bent the tongue of a stand up dolly. I came up with the idea to role it on wood broom handles.

[@MAGAMAN]

I used a 4 foot pry bar to move my entire floating laminate floor over enough to slide it under the door jamb so the transition strip would cover it. It moved the floor plus my 200+ lbs. while I was standing on it.

[@dakotakosen9597]

I bought a Burke bar because of your videos, best tool ever, used almost daily!

[@jadenephrite]

Regarding Scott Wadsworth @ 0:19, it was not Aristotle who said give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum to put it on and I'll move the world. Instead it was Archimedes who said it. Archimedes was an ancient Greek genius, mathematician, physicist and engineer who lived in Syracuse, Sicily from 287 to 212 BC. It was Archimedes who exclaimed "Eureka" (εὕρηκα) when he figured out how to test the golden crown of King Hiero II to determine that it had been alloyed with cheaper metal by a dishonest goldsmith. Archimedes also invented a gigantic grappling hook crane machine that sank Roman warships when they attacked Syracuse in 214 BC. On the other hand, Aristotle was an ancient Greek philosopher who lived a century earlier from 384 to 322 BC.

[@timothylewis90]

Ah, I fondly reflect back on my first pry tool, the flat head screw driver 🙂

[@ethanheyne]

On a whim, I got a massive flathead screwdriver from Harbor Fright. I've never used it as a screwdriver, but it's a great lever or pick! The kids use it as a sword occasionally.

[@ensignj3242]

I’m a 69 yr old woman and I bought a Burke Bar because of your recommendation. Still haven’t used it but I have it just in case. Glad I bought it.

[@HazItMade]

EXCELLENT presentation, Scott! AND, what most people don't know, is that the mechanical advantage is also an exact science. Children learn from the teeter-totter that they can play with dad on one side and them on the other if the distance from the fulcrum is correct. I taught this to my boys when they were still young. Papa weighed 250 and their combined weights totalled 125. My eldest was maybe 9 or 10 and he did the math that I had to be 3 ft from the fulcrum and they had to be 6 ft. 125 lbs x 6 ft = 250 lbs x 3 ft. Knowing how much the object you want to move weighs will tell you how long your pry bar needs to be (assuming you know your own weight). 2,000 lbs x .08 ft (1 inch) vs. 250 lbs x 5ft. My 2,500 ft lbs wins!

[@johnelliott4320]

I am a crane operator by trade, the company I work for we do a lot of tilt wall precast, the brick layers use burke bars all day long to adjust the panels I think about this channel every time I see them pull the burke bats off the truck in the morning

[@stevelawton4539]

Totally agree with the uses. I've touched all of those bars. The most recent is the Burke Bar and I'm not sure why it took so long to get my hands on one. Those I work with know it's in my truck; typically it's the first leverage tool they ask for. A back saver and helps make the hard labor jobs a little more enjoyable. Keep up the good work.

Wow!... What a video... Thanks sir. The one of the door repair you show at beginning still my favorite.

Great topic,I learned at a early age in the trade about leverage. There is 1 bar you didnt show which was my favorite on large formwork jobs. A 4 ft 90degree bar. Just a larger version of your gorrilla bar.

[@PGGraham]

I love all of these, but would add a Richardson bar. It looks like a half size, much thinner, flatter door or wonder bar. The long side is pretty wide and sharp though. Great for pulling baseboard or other trim without damaging it. My tile setter uses one for popping tiles as well.

[@briantaylor9266]

Agree 100%! I use my Richard Tools pry bar more than my Wunderbar. Also known as a hive tool, because beekeepers use them.

[@njc1205]

The slide hammer nail puller was one of the standard issue tools in the US ARMY Carpenter Toolset usually issued 1 each to a Company Headquarters and kept by the Supply Sergeant until needed. I suspect I've had to inventory that item more than I've seen one actually used for it's intended purpose.

[@WayneSmith-yf3fg]

I tell young people that come on the job site all the time "You'll learn the real uses of simple machines taught in school". We used to use an 8' oak mover's lever dolly to lift thousands of pounds and move them in the factory.

[@walterbordett2023]

Stealth and guile beat youth and strength. I need to get me a Burke Bar and one of those die bars with the nice handle. I have a favorite Estwing door bar that is about 35 years old. The bar is not flat in the handle section; it is half-moon shaped so it is more rigid than most door bars. It is ground with a good long taper at both ends so it fits under work better than most current door bars. For finish demo and repair I find a lot of use for a 2 1/2 inch rigid scraper (used to burn off paint) ground on one side. I use it as a pry bar alone or using it under a door bar with a pair of large diagonal cutters or end nippers to pry out nails...It is fabulous for removing baseboard or molding from a wall without damaging either material.

[@charliekingpin8568]

Your right on with this if mostly over looked but if you know the time and effort you can save is amazing one got one bar more than me :)

[@bigwave_dave8468]

Also, I have another pry-bar that's a cats-paw on one end and a wide fairly thin curved lever for pulling finish nails - it's a Japanese tool and incredibly useful for not marring delicate molding and it's not as destructive against drywall. In addition, I use a beefier shingle ripper which is non-flexible iron, about 18" with L-foot on one end and angled thinner wedge-shaped end sort of like your blue-bar). This very good for popping heavier baseboard moldings in addition to ripping shingle nails under a course of shingles.

[@Tractor_101]

The Johnson bar is also a great bar to have with the cape abilities of being able to lift and roll around very heavy objects.

[@charleywalker2982]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and keep your videos coming please, we really appreciate them.

[@debluetailfly]

My favorite bars are the small restorer's catspaws with a thin flat end. Best thing for trim and mouldings. A little larger, I love the Tove bars. I haven't had much luck with my Crescent; maybe I have tried to use it on too large of nails? A plier like tool called the Extractor is often used. For small finish nails, an old pair of hand forged nippers that were my grandfathers work wonders. Looking forward to years more of videos, if I last as long as you do.

Any bar is better than no bar ! I must have a dozen different types of bar. I always have one with me. Personally I like the flat bar that does not have a knuckle (vaughn bar) just a right angle. Most liked by me is the little Japanese “Shark” bar, but only the genuine article, so thin and so tough that it will get in anywhere with a light tap, I often use mine to open a gap without damage to get a bigger bar in. I don’t own a burke bar ! I still like the old fashioned five and a half foot crow bar and a heavy one at that, the weight helps !!

Great video, on leverage and bars. Something to add is when prizing something , two levers work well to spread the load if you don't want damage, you can get a kind of ratcheting effect. Also sometimes the first bar will, just get something up enough to get the second under.

[@JoeGerossie]

Something about listening to this video about bars is soothing

[@jmoman5356]

I remember using a flat bar to scrap up black glue or something that was under carpet as a kid. It was on top of an actually decent wood floor that was sanded and stained and looks nice to this day.

Burke bars are amazing. The tilt wall erector on my job, use them to shift the 90,000lb wall sections exactly where they want them before detaching from the crane and bracing them off. Four guys with two bars. It’s a sight to see.

[@asfdoth]

Perhaps others have already noted, but I believe the quote “Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world." is attributed to Archimedes (287-212BC). He postdated Aristotle (384-322BC) by 35 or so years. Both great thinkers, no doubt!

In Indiana, the “gorilla bar” is often called a “wrecking bar.” The “dig out bar” is referred to around here as a “slide hammer nail puller” and they are the best thing in the world for pulling nails out of corrugated pole barn siding and roofing.

[@Gravitycrazy]

Good picks for sure, though instead of a simple flat bar I'd use a wonder bar. Stanley makes a great one. There's a rounded portion a half circle used for leverage and the flat of the bar is of set around 25-30 degrees really good for getting more leverage on a wide area if you can't get something like a J bar in it

[@banjotramp1]

Cats paw has a dedicated spot in my tool belt forever. I never saw a burke bar around here, but it looks like just the thing I needed last summer to move big heavy farm machines and the grain dryer around. My go to bar for decades has been a very simple flat bar, about 18" long with a hex handle (sorta like a big cold chisel). The hex end you hit with a hammer driving the flat end into the work. It can get under shingles, hold doors, pull nails, tiles, trim and baseboard with minimal damage, and every thing else I have thrown at it. I wish I could show a picture here. The idea is to be smarter than the heavy thing, not stronger (unless you are stronger), but at 70yr/145 lb smarter is def the way to go.

I typically have 2 of every bar except a cats paw. I keep the cats paw in my bags and use it as a hammer partner. All the other bars can be used with a hammer, but sometimes it’s nice to use 2 flat bars together. I find that if I’m using a flat bar often enough I can slip it in my tool belt directly between the belt and bag.

G'day, a young 26yrs here. Recently bought a felling lever with a cant hook (Arborist by trade). Used almost daily, being used as intended, felling lever, cant hook for rolling logs. But it sure comes in handy everywhere else. Amazing what leverage can do and how much less force and strain is put on your body.

You forgot the best part of using a flat bar. When pulling casing or trim off of doors, window, etc. When you want to reuse the material and/or not mar or mark up surrounding area. You take the bent side of the bar get it behind the trim/case/base and instead of applying pressure on the flat side of the bar you put pressure on the edge of the bar. This does 2 things multiples leverage and keeps the marring behind the peice you are removing. Maybe you know this trick and forgot to share but it is by far the most useful aspect of a flat bar for remodeling

[@meenishal]
