The offset ripping chisel is used with a hammer to pry apart objects that are glued together. To use a ripping chisel, stick the curved end inside the joint of the two objects. Use a hammer to knock the curve of the chisel all the way inside the joint. Then pull the top shaft of the chisel to pry the two objects apart.

A wonderbar can be used to remove molding from a wall. First, use a utility knife to cut the paint seal between the top of the molding and the wall. Use a hammer to knock the curved end of the wonderbar into the joint. Then place a scrap block of wood between the wonderbar and the dry wall to protect the wall when the molding is removed.

Use a ripping chisel for prying nails. Place the head of the chisel around the nail and pull upward.

A nail claw may also be used for prying nails. Dig the heel of the claw into the wood to get enough leverage to pull out the nail.
