Tyre lever
The tyre lever is a metal rod with a curved end for removing or installing
an outer tyre from a rim of a car or bicycle. For this operation, usually
two or more pieces are inserted simultaneously in different places around
the rim. A small kink at the end can serve to secure the tyre lever behind
a spoke. The metal lever has a flattened end, sometimes with a profile to
provide more grip to the hands. Models for bicycles are smaller and may be
paired with an alligator wrench to form a bicycle alligator wrench. [MOT]
Type holder (bookbinder)
Tool the bookbinder uses to decorate and gild leather-bound books. It
consists of a metal - often copper - elongated (approx. 10-12 cm long;
approx. 1 cm wide) holder, fixed in a wooden handle. Blocks with letters
can be placed in the holder, which can be clamped by a screw. After
heating, the letters are stamped into the (gilded) leather, in order to
obtain the desired word. Some models are adjustable for different letter
heights (1). See also the bookbinder's pallet. [MOT] (1) This is because
letters for the letterpress are not always of the same height as handprint
type (KIEL & LOBLER: 105).

Tyre lifter
The blacksmith or wheelwright uses the tyre lifter to remove the glowing
iron (wheel)band from the fire to place it on the rims. Afterwards, the
tyre is pulled onto the rims of a wheel with the sledgehammer and the
tyring dog. This hook-shaped tool is also used by the millwright when
covering the millstone with iron hoops. Smaller wheel tyres are removed
from the fire with smith's tongs. Some models look very similar to the
scroll wrench. [MOT]
