Abstract: An art and craft tool for spreading pigment from a naturally pigmented solid material to onto a workpiece surface, comprising a tool frame; a base surface on the tool frame; a material holder projecting outwardly of the base surface and configured to releasably mechanically secure a naturally pigmented solid material adjacent to the base surface, against slippage with respect to said base surface; wherein such naturally pigmented solid material secured by the holder may be pressed against a workpiece and rubbed such that pigment from the material is pressed by the base surface against the workpiece and pigment from the pigmented material is deposited onto the workpiece.

Abstract: A self-centering impact hand tool 10 has a forward tool member 14 with an elongated forward tool body 15 extending from a tool tip 17 to an anvil surface 19 at a rear end 18. The hand impact tool 10 has a plunger member 40 with an elongated forward end 44 having an anvil surface 46 for engaging the anvil surface 19. An elongated coil spring 60 has reduced diameter spring ends 64 and 66 mounted in corresponding spring latching grooves 22 and 54, respectively. Each of the members 14 and 40 have finger gripping sections 21 and 52 that are formed with a series of annular grooves 80 forming finger rings 82 for enabling the user to easily grip and hold the tool member 14 during the operation of the tool and the expansion of the coil spring prior to the release of the plunger member 40. Upon release of the plunger member, the anvil surface 46 of the forward end 44 is driven into a rear section 36 of a driving piston 33 to drive a brad, or nail or center punch rapidly and forcefully into a work surface 12.

Abstract: An combination center punch and prick punch impact hand tool 10 has a center punch member 14 with an elongated center punch body 16 extending from a tool tip 20 to an anvil surface 24 at a rear end 22. The hand impact tool 10 has a prick punch member 40 with an elongated forward end 44 having an anvil surface 46 for engaging the anvil surface 24. An elongated coil spring 60 has reduced diameter spring ends 64 and 66 mounted in corresponding spring latching grooves 28 and 54, respectively. Each of the members 14 and 40 have finger gripping sections 26 and 52 that are formed with a series of annular grooves 80 forming finger rings 82 for enabling the user to easily grip and hold the tool member 14 during the operation of the tool and the expansion of the coil spring prior to the release of the prick punch member 40. Upon release of the prick punch member, the anvil surface 46 of the forward end 44 is driven into the anvil surface 24 with a very sharp impact.

Abstract: A impact hand stamping tool 10 has an imprint member 14 with an elongated hand stamp element 16 slidably mounted in a supporting sleeve element 18. The hand stamp element extends from an anvil end 50 to an imprint end 46 having a symbol face 48. The hand impact tool 10 has a plunger member 70 with an elongated forward end 74 having an anvil surface 76 for engaging the anvil surface 52. An elongated coil spring 90 has reduced diameter spring ends 94 and 96 mounted in corresponding spring latching grooves 26 and 84, respectively. Each of the members 14 and 70 have finger gripping sections 26 and 84 that are formed with a series of annular grooves 100 forming finger rings 102 for enabling the user to easily grip and hold the tool member 14 during the operation of the tool and the expansion of the coil spring prior to the release of the plunger member 70.
