Abstract: The invention is a single thickness metallic notation plate for use in combination with today's plastic cased measuring tapes. During manufacture, the metallic notation plate is pressed into a slightly concave shape. The concave surface is pressed against the tape case surface which ensures that the metal edges snug tightly to the tape perimeter for user-friendly contact. The plate is held in place by factory applied, paper protected adhesives. Notations are erased with a rubber eraser or by moistening the plate and rubbing off with finger pressure. When the plate surface becomes too scratched and unusable, it is stripped off and a new one is applied.

Abstract: The invention is a Concrete Screed Handle assembly which provides a comfortable and stable grasping mechanism for an individual who wishes to put a screed board into a side-to-side motion while advancing it over a wet concrete surface. It is of tubular construction, inverted U-shaped while being used, and has two clamping points roughly shoulder width apart which mount onto the top of the screed board. The clamps on the handle assembly are hand-tightened through threaded bolt/stop assembly which, through a pivoting lever action, clamps the screed board to the handle assembly.
