Abstract: A laser module for use with a rotating blade-type cutting device, such as a miter saw. The laser module includes a housing rotating in unison with the saw blade, a laser generator positioned within the housing so as to emit a laser beam therefrom, a flexure bracket having a connector portion connected to the housing and a support portion supporting the laser generator, and an adjuster extending through the housing and engaging the flexure bracket. The adjuster is movable with respect to the housing to adjust the direction of the laser beam between periods of operation of the cutting device.

Abstract: A rotating blade-type cutting device, such as a miter saw, and a laser module for use with the cutting device. The laser module includes a housing rotating in unison with the saw blade, a laser generator positioned within the housing so as to emit a laser beam therefrom, and a power source positioned within the housing. The power source is removable from the housing while the housing is coupled with the saw blade so that the power source is easily accessible to the saw operator.

Abstract: A laser module for use with a rotating blade-type cutting device, such as a miter saw. The laser module includes a housing rotating in unison with the saw blade, a power source positioned within the housing for supplying electrical power to the laser generator, and a laser generator control switch selectively connecting the laser generator to the power source. For example, a first laser generator control switch may be a centrifugal switch electrically connecting the laser generator to the power source upon rotation of the laser module at a sufficient speed and a second laser generator control switch may be an on/off switch electrically connecting the laser generator to the power source when in a closed position.

Abstract: A cap suitable to receive a fastener for operation with a cap nailer. The cap includes a top surface and a bottom surface and an outer peripheral wall between the top and the bottom surfaces. The outer peripheral wall includes at least one planar surface, which receives an adhering strip that extends along a stack of similar caps to collate the stack of caps together.

Abstract: A pad sander paper punch assembly includes a base member having three upstanding walls for locating thereon a standard size sheet of sandpaper. A plate member is then placed over the sheet of sandpaper, the plate member having locating tabs which cooperate with the upstanding walls on the base member. The plate member and the base member are both perforated in locations corresponding to suction holes on the platen of the pad sander and a punch is then utilized to pass through the plate and base member perforations to appropriately perforate the sandpaper sandwiched therebetween. The base member is further formed with recessed walls so that the sandpaper may be creased at its ends to go over the sander platen with the perforations therein properly aligned with the suction holes in the sander platen.
