Abstract: An artificial bait features an overmolded fish attractant sponge and ports through which fish attractant exudes. The bait is comprised of a soft resilient plastic. A container portion of the bait houses the sponge. The container portion includes perforations for fluid communication with the housed sponge. Prior to injection molding, the sponge is a dry compressed cellulose sponge. The sponge is coated with oil prior to injection molding. Pins or blades in the mold assembly position the oil-coated, compressed, cellulose sponge in the container portion of the bait. The pins or blades also define perforations in the container portion for fluid communication with the sponge. The oil coating on the compressed cellulose sponge prevents molten plastic from impregnating the sponge during the injection molding process. The oil coating does not cause the sponge to expand. After manufacture, a water-based fish attractant is introduced into and absorbed by the sponge via the perforations.

Abstract: A manually operable post driver for posts (10) including a slide hammer (11) and removable anvil (12) mounted on the post for accomplishing the driving is described. The anvil (12) is rigidly secured by removable nuts (35, 36) on studs (33, 34) to the post (10) intermediate the ends of the post so that the slide hammer can be impacted against the anvil. The driver is particularly suited for U-channel posts (10) having a line of spaced holes (10d) at the bottom (10a) of the channel for mounting the anvil and having opposing blunt ends (10g and 10h). The anvil can be mounted anywhere along the post. Also a sign can be on the post during driving. U-channel posts are commonly used for road signs on highways and have blunt ends (10g, 10h) which are difficult to drive into the ground by conventional hand driving tools.

Abstract: A combination luggage case, stand to remove contents without stooping over, a table with an extension that can be used as an ironing board or a display table. It has an open topped compartment and a hinged cover for the compartment. Foldable supporting structure includes a fork shaped support for one end and a nose panel for a support in position when opened parallel to the fork shaped support on the other end, thereby forming a stand to remove the contents or to be used as a table. The second position is made by raising the nose to be horizontal and parallel to the floor and supported by an auxiliary leg structure on the nose panel and the case, thus forming an extension table or to be used as an ironing board.
