Excerpt from The Boy Mechanic, Volume 2, 1915.
Removing
Tight-fitting Can Covers
Tight-fitting
covers on lard and similar pails can be readily removed by tying
a stout cord loosely below the cover, then placing an ordinary
nail under the cord and twisting it. This will tighten the cord
around the can evenly, which will loosen the cover.
