Short description: Metalworking tool

A Snarling iron is a metal worker's tool used to drive the walls of metal vessels. "A snarler... is a worker in teapots, and may... be compared with the leaf bumper who bumps up the leaves commonly seen in metalwork".[1] Examples have come to light in different historical contexts, as in Chanhudaro,[2] Indus valley civilization.
