Abstract: This invention consists of a hand operated tool to be used for the purpose of forcibly straightening or positioning material such as outdoor deck boards, tongue and groove wall or ceiling boards, tongue and groove interior wood flooring and other similar wood or composite construction material. It includes an elongated handle with a spoked circular plate attached to one end. The plate has a means of attachment to the framing or sub floor which allows the tool to pivot on an off-center point. Swinging the handle in an arc thereby rotating the circular plate gradually increases the radius from the fixed pivot point to the outer edge of the disk which forces the wood in the desired direction, thereby straightening it.

Abstract: This invention consists of three new features which on their own or in combination, improve the usefulness of the existing drywall jab saw. The three new features are the addition of fine teeth to the top of the blade, a blade with equally spaced holes along its length which are used as a rip guide, and a notch at the end of the handle to help remove narrow rips of drywall.
