Abstract: A tooling plate having a plurality of columns of holes can be quickly and easily configured as a jig. Every second column contains threaded holes and the other columns contain unthreaded holes for reception of alignment pins. Alignment pins can be inserted into these unthreaded holes to produce a jig suitable for aligning a workpiece. The threaded holes are utilized by clamps that hold the workpiece rigidly in place and by an alignment bar that can be used to align the workpiece along any desired direction parallel to a front face of the tooling plate.

Abstract: A combination transfer depth gauge capable of measuring the depth of small diameter blind holes in close proximity to the shoulder of a workpiece is made up of a bar stock body having opposed flat end faces and a longitudinal throughbore. One end portion of the body is milled off to provide an offset face that intersects the throughbore. A small gauge wire is slidably mounted in the bore and is clamped to the body by a nylon setscrew.

Abstract: A combined sinker and fishing lure comprises an elongate molded lead body that is substantially half round in cross section along substantially its entire length, has semi-spherical ends, is about 51/2" to 61/2" long and about 3/4" to 1" wide, and weighs about 3/4-1 pound. The lure may be longer, say about 8", but its cross section will be correspondingly smaller to provide the desired weight of about 3/4-1 pound. A length of twisted wire is embedded along the length of the lead body during molding and has an eyelet at each end for connection to a fishing line at one end and a hook at the other end. The peripheral surface of the body has adhered thereto substantially along its length a reflecting tape comprising an outer transparent layer of plastic film, and intermediate reflective layer of vacuum deposited aluminum and an inner layer of adhesive.
