Abstract: A sawguide positioning method for circular gang saws mounted on a single saw arbor shaft. A guide bar is positioned generally parallel to the saw arbor shaft. A plurality of sawguide pairs are slidably mounted on the guide bar for longitudinal axial travel thereon. The guides extend on either side of each of the circular saws. A pair of opposed sawguide positioning wedges are threadably mounted on a selectively rotatable shaft having a right hand threaded end and a left hand threaded end, the axis of the shaft being generally at right angles to both the saw arbor shaft and the guide bar. The wedges are threaded on to the selectively rotatable shaft with their vertices innermost. The threaded shaft has an enlarged diameter portion or disk intermediate the threaded ends which is rotatably positioned within matching recesses in the opposed faces of the sawguides.

Abstract: A saddle has a saddle tree, a laterally aligned, generally arcuate, downwardly concave spanning brace mounted to, and beneath, the saddle tree, a seat member rigidly mountable to the spanning brace and extending rearwardly of the spanning brace to a cantle, the cantle extending laterally and generally parallel to the spanning brace, the spanning brace and the cantle extending laterally between, and pivotally mounted to, opposed facing mirror image longitudinally extending first and second elongate bearing members, the spanning brace and the cantle pivotally mounted to the elongate bearing members of releasably securable pivotable hinges.

Abstract: An articulated self-propelled tug and boat trailer. The trailer is mounted on wheels and includes a laterally opposed pair of generally parallel spaced apart longitudinally extending hull supporting members connected by cross members. The hull supporting members are pivotable about the trailer wheels. Independently actuable hydraulic rams selectively or simultaneously elevate either or both of the longitudinally extending hull supporting members relative to the trailer wheels. The cross members which rigidly mount the hull supporting members to a universal articulatable joint having three rotational degrees of freedom. A self-propelled tug is the opposite side of the universal articulatable joint. Independent hydraulic rams independently and selectively pivot the trailer and the tug relative to each other about each of the three rotational degrees of freedom. The tug has drive wheels for selectively self-propelled translation of the tug and the trailer.

Abstract: The bumper mountable camper stand includes a pair of base members each having first and second feet extending longitudinally opposite, and having a pillar extending perpendicularly therefrom, a lateral cross member and having a pair of tubes extending perpendicularly therefrom, first mounting apparatus for releasable mounting the first feet in sliding engagement to a mounting member on a frame of a vehicle, second mounting apparatus for releasable mounting the tubes in sliding engagement to the second feet, and third mounting apparatus for releasable mounting the tubes in sliding engagement to the pillars.

Abstract: A sheet material carrying device comprises a U-shaped bracket having first and second legs defining a slot therebetween. The first and second legs have leg ends at the ends of the "U"-shaped bracket. Mounted to the first and second legs respectively are first and second opposed facing jaws. The first leg has at its' end a cam follower. The first jaw is pivotally mounted to the first leg and rotatable into the slot. A first jaw engaging lever, having a cam end and an opposed handle end, is pivotally mounted at its'cam end to the first jaw. The cam end comprises a cam surface, whereby the first jaw engaging lever is rotatable by pivoting the handle end about the first jaw so as to engage the cam surface with the cam follower. The first jaw is thereby forced into the slot to frictionally engage a sheet of material placed therein.
