Abstract: A portable chamfer tool includes a housing configured to support a blade to cut a tenon into a workpiece as the housing is rotated about the workpiece. The portable chamfer tool also includes a passage through the housing configured to receive the workpiece and expose the workpiece to at least one blade to form the tenon and sighting holes disposed in the housing to expose a portion of the workpiece as it travels through the passage. The portable chamfer tool includes measuring marker disposed about the sighting holes to indicate a measure of a length of the portion of the workpiece exposed by the sighting holes. The portable chamfer tool provides a means to form a taper on a first end of a peg disposed in a tenon and mortise joint that is substantially matched to a preformed taper on a second end of the peg.

Abstract: A golf chipping practice apparatus is provided which includes a plurality of separate panels onto which balls are chipped. Each panel is divided into a plurality of target zones, including target holes. A plurality of sensors automatically detect where a ball lands and an automated scorekeeping device assigns a scoring value to each shot based on where it lands. The scorekeeping device generates a total score and determines when a round has been completed, based on a predetermined number of balls having landed on each panel. A golf chipping practice game suitable for the apparatus is also disclosed.
