has gloss | eng: A spud bar, or in British English usually crowbar or just bar, is a long straight metal bar used lengthwise as a hand tool to deliver blows to a target, causing the target to move, break up or deform. It can also be used as a lever to move objects. Typical uses include breaking up clay, concrete, frozen ground and other hard materials, moving or breaking up tree roots and obstacles, and making pilot holes for driving fence posts. It is often used where space would not allow the use of a pickaxe. A spud bar with a thickened end can be used to tamp soil. |
