Some bulky or fragile goods are transported in wooden crates. Sometimes a nail extractor, but usually a crowbar is used to open them. The latter is sometimes combined with an ax and a hammer; it then becomes a crate ax. There are several models of that composite tool. In general, it is made entirely of iron and weighs 0.4-0.8 kg. The handle continues above the ax and the hammer; he forms a crowbar there. Sometimes a drop-shaped hole is drilled in the stem or a notch in the blade of the ax to pull out long nails. [MOT]

Crucible tongs are metal tongs with relatively long arms (approx. 10-40 cm) and convex curved jaws, with which the melting pot can be removed from the fire. Large versions of crucible tongs are also used in founding metals like bronze to pour the molten metal into the mould. These tools are 2 to 4 meters long and must be handled with two people (1). [MOT] (1) One also speaks of 'foundry ladle' or 'bull ladle'. See SELLENS, 270.
