I think the Yorkshire prodler is basically a small podger used for more delicate jobs.
This thread could have come from the excellent book by R T Nicholson on the Austin Seven. I am sure he warns somewhere of the dangers of dickering with a podger, especially doing it at the scullery sink when the little woman is out!

Used to be a pub in Garforth called 'The Podger' that had a picture of a large spanner with a pointy end (ie: a Podger) on the pub sign outside. Pub's still there but it's now called something that more people understand!! Seems the pub's got its old name back although not its old sign https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant...gland.html Steve

Used podgers for lining up bolt holes when building Harvestore silos in Australia - essential equipment.
