Abstract: A utility knife includes a handle having a body and a receiving aperture. The utility knife further includes a collet at least partially receivable in the receiving aperture, and a sleeve that is engageable with and that surrounds the collet. The collet is configured to alternately receive one of a portion of a blade of a first type in a first slot and a portion of a blade of a second type in a second slot. The collet and the sleeve are co-rotatable relative the handle to move the collet to a secured position in which one of the blade of the first type and the blade of the second type are secured to the collet.

Abstract: A support panel including a panel body and a rail integrally formed with the panel body. The rail protrudes away from the panel body. The rail includes a surface configured to engage a mounting feature of an assembly to be mounted upon the panel body by the rail.

Abstract: A rotary tool mandrel includes a shaft, locking projections, a collar, and a fastener. The shaft extends along a longitudinal axis and includes a distal end. The locking projections protrude radially relative to the longitudinal axis and positioned on opposite sides of the longitudinal axis from one another. Each of the locking projections define a locking projection outer profile that is rectilinear. The collar is coupled to the shaft and includes a pair of coupling projections protruding from a surface of the collar adjacent the distal end of the shaft. The coupling projections are angularly offset from the locking projections with respect to the longitudinal axis. Each of the coupling projections define a coupling projection that is rectilinear. The fastener is coupled to the shaft and movable relative to the shaft along the longitudinal axis, and movement of the fastener causes the locking projections to move toward the coupling projections.

Abstract: A three-dimensional printer with improved adjustment mechanisms for calibrating the orientation of the build platform and an extrusion assembly to optimize the accuracy of models deposited on the build platform. The printer includes a frame carrying an extrusion assembly proximate the top, and a carriage within. A build platform is mounted on the top of the carriage. Carriage adjustment mechanisms are provided at at least two corners of the carriage for calibrating the orientation of the build platform with respect to the X-Y plane. An extrusion assembly adjustment mechanism is provided at at least one end of the extrusion mechanism for calibrating the orientation of the extrusion mechanism with respect to the Y-axis. A height adjustment mechanism is provided for translating the carriage within the frame along the Z-axis.

Abstract: A stackable storage system includes a first container, a second container, and a latch moveable between a first position and a second position. The first container includes a projection extending away from the first container along a stacking direction. An edge portion extends from the projection along a plane substantially perpendicular to the stacking direction. The second container includes a recess. The recess receives the projection when the first container and the second container are stacked relative to one another in the stacking direction. The latch overlaps the edge portion with respect to the stacking direction while in the first position to secure the first container and the second container. The latch and edge portion are positioned in a non-overlapping manner relative to one another while the latch is in the second position to permit separation of the first container from the second container.

Abstract: A taping tool is provided, the taping tool includes a housing, a spool disposed at one end of the housing, and a blade disposed at another end of the housing. The blade has a first end defining a first cutting tool and a second end defining a second cutting tool. The blade is retained by the housing in either a first configuration in which the first cutting tool projects from the housing or in a second configuration in which the second cutting tool projects from the housing.

Abstract: A utility knife is provided for supporting a blade in use, the blade defining a cutting edge, the utility knife including a handle portion, a blade holder positioned proximate the handle and defining a longitudinal axis, the blade holder configured for retaining a blade, and a fastener for selectively retaining the blade within the blade holder in a plurality of orientations. In a first orientation the cutting edge extends substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the blade holder, and in a second orientation the cutting edge of the blade extends transverse to the longitudinal axis of the blade holder.

Abstract: A pocket hole jig for locating pocket holes in a workpiece includes a base with a base plate and first and second side walls extending along the base plate, and a body disposed between the first and second side walls and slidable along the base in a forward direction and a rearward direction. The body includes a drill bit aperture angled downward toward the base plate. The pocket hole jig also includes a fastener configured to releasably couple the pocket hole jig to an adjacent second pocket hole jig.

Abstract: A repair kit for repairing a damaged area of a workpiece includes an arbor and a cutting member. The cutting member is removably coupled to the arbor and includes a side wall that has a first end and a second end. An end cap is coupled to the first end and abuts an abutment surface of the arbor. A plurality of cutting elements is coupled to the second end of the side wall, and a retention feature extends outwardly from the side wall. The cutting member is rotatable by the arbor to cut a hole in the workpiece. The retention feature is configured to engage the workpiece as the cutting member cuts the hole to secure the cutting member within the hole. The arbor is removable from the cutting member while the retention feature engages the workpiece to leave the cutting member in the workpiece to plug the hole.

Abstract: A method to repair a damaged area of a workpiece with a repair kit includes rotating an arbor to drive a cutting member about a central axis of the arbor, cutting a hole in the workpiece with the cutting member, engaging the workpiece with the cutting member as the hole is cut to secure the cutting member within the hole, disconnecting the arbor from the cutting member, and leaving the cutting member in the workpiece to plug the hole.

Abstract: An extension assembly configured to permit a user to drill a hole through inaccessible areas in a wall is disclosed. The extension assembly includes a flexible, solid core rod having first and second ends and a holding means. The rod is configured to extend through a hole in a wall cavity and flex therein to position a tool bit at an inaccessible location in the wall cavity and permit a user to drill a hole through a substrate at the inaccessible location. The holding means is secured to the second end of the rod for releasably holding a tool bit for rotation with the rod and includes a sleeve adapted to slide axially along a body of the holding means between a secured position where a tool bit is securely held within the holding means and a release position where the tool bit is released from the holding means.
