Abstract: An equipment mounting system for mounting equipment to a support structure is described. An equipment mounting system including: (i) a mounting plate having defined therein a plate aperture of a particular shape; (ii) a bolt having a shaft portion including a threaded portion and a non-threaded portion that is of a complementary shape that complements the particular shape of the plate aperture; and (iii) a washer having defined therein a scored aperture that includes multiple radially extending scorings. In an assembled configuration of the mounting plate, the bolt and the washer, the plate aperture of the particular shape aligns with the scoring aperture such that both of the plate aperture and the scoring aperture receive the non-threaded portion of the complementary shape, and the particular shape of the mounting plate engages with the complementary shape of the bolt to prevent rotational displacement of the bolt around the mounting plate.

Abstract: Machining guides and methods relating thereto are described. One example of the machining guide, according to the present arrangement, includes: (i) two or more frames, each of which includes—(a) a first guide member including first multiple plates; (b) a second guide member including second multiple plates; and (c) a pivoting connection pivotably connecting the first guide member and the second guide member, and wherein, during an operative state of the machining guide, one or both of the first and the second guide members of two or more of the frames pivot about the pivoting connection to allow two or more of the frames to be disposed around the workpiece; and (ii) one or more spacer plates being disposed between each of the frames and define a kerf between each of the frames such that, during the operative state of the machining guide, a tool through the kerf is capable of machining the workpiece.
