Description: |
| "With the pointed end of the tool I cut out a part of the bung, thus making an orifice through it, and through this orifice I insert the hooked end of the tool. By turning the tool on a vertical axis until the hook comes under the part of the bung remaining in the cask, I am enabled to pull out this part of the bung."
