Abstract: A system for guiding a cutting tool utilizing a beam generator and a platten having a surface which is capable of presenting a pattern. The beam impinging on the platten is discernable. The beam generator is aligned with the cutting portion of the cutting tool such that the beam on the surface of the platten represents the position of the part of the cutting tool relative to a work piece. An operator may cut a pattern in the work piece by following the pattern on the platten with the beam image on the platten.

Abstract: A trap for animals in which an inlet door is adapted to close when the animal enters the trap enclosure. The trap will confine and restrain the animal within the enclosure until an exit door or barrier is opened by the captor. A time release is provided by utilizing an edible or chewable member which constitutes a further release barrier which keeps the animal restrained until the animal gnaws, eats or chews his way through the same, thereby giving the captor time to remove himself from the location where the trap is placed with the animal therein.
