Abstract: A tack tool apparatus and a method of use comprises a user operable, hand gripable, and storable apparatus for removing, inserting, and straightening a tack. The tack tool is an elongated member with one end formed into a first cylindrical member. The other end is formed into a forked wedge member. The forked wedge member is angularly displaced relative to the longitudinal length of the elongated member. The first cylindrical member has one end closed forming a convex portion. The first cylindrical member has an inner surface disposed about a coaxially positioned second cylindrical member. The second cylindrical member has a metallic retaining mechanism mounted within for positioning tacks during insertion. A method of using the tack tool to remove a tack from adjoined surfaces comprises a user grasping the elongated member with either hand, and positioning the forked wedge member's bottom surface onto the surface of the structure of the structure containing the tack.
