Abstract: A blower attachment (15) comprising a frame (16) having a connecting assembly (18) for releasably connecting to a blower (35), a housing (19) supported by the frame and enclosing a chamber (20), the housing having a top portion (21), a bottom portion (22) and side portions (23a-d), an inlet (24) to the chamber in the top portion of the housing, the inlet having a maximum inlet width (34), a conduit (25) adapted to extend between the inlet and a blower outlet port (36), multiple baffles (26a-h) in the chamber orientated vertically and extending from a first point (27a-d) below the inlet to a second point (28a-d) peripheral to the inlet, an outlet (29) from the chamber positioned below the inlet and having a maximum outlet width (73) greater than the maximum inlet width, an adjustment mechanism (30) adapted to adjust the height of the outlet relative to an underlying surface (38), the conduit, inlet, chamber, baffles and outlet adapted to direct flow (79) from the blower through the inlet into the chamber and o

Abstract: A fishing rod holder having a base, a fishing rod holding tube pivotally mounted on the base, a one-way movable connection located between the base and the fishing rod holding tube for holding the fishing rod holding tube against movement to a more horizontal position while permitting the fishing rod holding tube to be swung to a more upright position by merely manually grasping the holding tube and pivoting it on its base, a disengagement member for disengaging the one-way movable connection to permit the fishing rod holding tube to be swung manually to a more horizontal position, with the one-way movable connection consisting of engaged serrated discs having relatively small serrations to permit the holding tube to be oriented at a plurality of relatively small angular positions between its horizontal and vertical limits of movement.
