Patent number: 11949215Abstract: A depth gauge is provided that is configured to be removably coupled to a tool. The depth gauge having a gauge body, a coupling means to removably couple the gauge body to the tool and a fiducial on the gauge body whereby the fiducial signifies a distance between the fiducial and a portion of the tool. In some embodiments, the coupling means comprises a magnet. In some embodiments, the tool is a wire stripper whereby when the wire stripper is actuated on a coated wire, the wire stripper cuts a portion of the wire coating equal to the distance defined by the fiducial. In some embodiments, the fiducial comprises an abutment protruding from the gauge body. In some embodiments, the depth gauge has multiple fiducials and the gauge body and the fiducials are formed as one piece.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2020Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Inventor: Gary Anthony Horgan

Patent number: 11930827Abstract: A Magnetic Rolling System for Pliable Material is described as a rolling board having the ability to magnetically attract spacing and guide rails on which a rolling pin travels, thus keeping a rolling pin a specified distance above the rolling board and on track. In addition, these spacing and guide rails are also used to hold a rolling diagram, a cutting mat, and a sheet of parchment paper firmly in place. The Magnetic Rolling System for Pliable Material makes rolling pliable material such as dough and compounds to a precise thickness, simple and almost effortless.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2018Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Inventor: Gary Anthony Horgan

Patent number: 11788603Abstract: A ligature attachment device for use with a ligature is disclosed, the ligature attachment device comprising a proximal section comprising a loop retainer section, a distal section comprising a tool section, a central section comprising a central ligature spool section having a centrally located cinch aperture and the central ligature spool section is coupled to the loop retainer section and the tool section. The loop retainer section having a loop retainer profile configured to retain a loop of the ligature frictionally engaged with the central ligature spool section. The cinch aperture having an aperture shape configured to allow at least two sections of a ligature to be removably retained in the cinch aperture whereby the cinch aperture can removably retain the loop of the ligature. The tool section comprises a first tool for removably joining a second tool.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2022Date of Patent: October 17, 2023Inventor: Gary Anthony Horgan
