Spud Wrench (sometimes called construction wrench)

The spud wrench is the iconic tool of structural Ironworkers. New York City is a city built out of steel and it's beautiful skyline is made possible by steel framed structures. Everyone knows the picture of the Ironworkers sitting on a beam, and everyone equates it with NYC. What people don't realize is this isn't an outdated proffesion but that Ironworkers are still walking on steel in the sky and building and repairing our city.
