Abstract: A projectile and stabilizer therefor are provided. The sliding stabilizer is used instead of fixed or glued tail feathers, vanes or other fletching as a means for stabilizing projectile flight. The invention improves current projectile technology with reduced assembly labor cost, the elimination of bow clearance issues, improved accuracy with the consistent production of the sliding stabilizer, easy replacement of the stabilizer in the field, and improved projectile storage. A sliding stabilizer is designed to slide along the shaft of a projectile and comprises a circumferentially extending wing and a plurality of fins. In use, the stabilizer is positioned at the front of the projectile prior to launch, and the projectile slides quickly through the stabilizer until secured at a stop position at or near the trailing end of the projectile. An annular arrow fletch and arrow stabilizer are also provided.

Abstract: A tool for removing a damaged lug stud from a vehicle may include, at one end thereof, a socket that fits over a lug nut. The socket may be held in place with a wrench, pliers, or the like while the stud is drilled through a bushing on the other end of the tool. The tool may remove the damaged lug stud quickly, without damage to the wheel of the vehicle.
