What happens here

The presenter introduces the project, explaining that removing hinge pins is the simplest way to take a door off for tasks like moving furniture, painting, or staining, as it avoids unscrewing hinges from the door jamb or the door itself. He then introduces the "Spring Tools" hinge pin removal tool, demonstrating its use. The tool has a spring mechanism that, when pulled back and released, hammers the hinge pin upwards. There's a small hole at the bottom of the hinge barrel where the tool is inserted to strike the pin from below, pushing it up so it can be manually pulled out.

Goal: Learn the method and identify the necessary tool.
