Abstract: An eyeglass case includes a substantially rigid internal shell member surrounded by a flexible covering material provided with a closure flap selectively securable in a closed position for retaining eyeglasses in protective storage within the inner shell member. The shell member includes an inverted V-shaped support member extending upwardly from a floor of the shell member which engages a nose recess of a pair of eyeglasses stored within the case. The shell member includes one or more internal receptacles for storage of miscellaneous accessory items such as nose pads, spare screws, a small screwdriver, lens cleaning solution, a lens wiping cloth, contact lenses, contact lens solutions, medications, etc.

Abstract: An eyeglass case includes top and bottom substantially rigid shell members connected by a hinge for movement between open and closed positions. In the closed position, the shell members define an enclosed interior space adapted for protective storage of eyeglasses. The top and bottom shell members each include an interior end portion provided with an internal receptacle for storage of miscellaneous accessory items such as nose pads, spare screws, a small screwdriver, lens cleaning solution, and a lens wiping cloth. The internal receptacles include floor portions configured complementary to the articles stored therein and hinged lids for maintaining the stored items securely in position.

Abstract: A tree stand intended principally for use with a natural Christmas tree includes a substantially hollow frusto conical base portion having a plurality of stepped frusto conical surfaces terminating at an upper end in a cylindrical double-walled well dimensioned for receipt of a trunk portion of a tree. Four circumferentially spaced set screw receiving apertures extend through inner and outer walls of the well. A pair of radially extending bulkheads extend between the inner and outer side walls and include juxtaposed slots mounting edge portions of threaded wafer nuts for engagement with pointed set screws. In use, a user tightens the set screws into engagement with a trunk portion of a tree to centrally secure the same in the cylindrical central well. A metal spike extends centrally upwardly from a floor of the well, reinforced by diametrically and circumferentially extending struts and webs, for engagement into a cut end portion of a tree.

Abstract: A substantially U-shaped stud engaging clip formed from a resilient plastic or metal material and dimensioned for frictional engagement with a standard 2".times.4" or 2".times.6" framing stud. A wire engaging clip body is formed on a side wall of the stud engaging clip and includes a plurality of resilient clips which may be selectively dimensioned to secure flat ROMEX type cables, round cables, or individual wires. Preferably, each wire engaging clip body includes a variety of differently dimensioned individual clip elements to allow convenient securement of various different conventional forms of wiring. The stud engaging clip may be stapled to the conventional 2".times.4" or 2".times.6" stud by a conventional manual or rechargeable staple gun to enhance securement. After the wiring is installed utilizing a plurality of the stud engaging clips, drywall is conventionally nailed to the studs, over the clips.
