The tool includes a first housing, a second housing, and a shaft positioned at least partially within the first housing and the second housing. The shaft is configured to move along a longitudinal axis of the tool with respect to the first housing and the second housing. Furthermore, the tool includes an anvil coupled to the second housing, a biasing device coupled to the shaft and to the anvil, and a tip coupled to the anvil.

Abstract: An attachment for a power planer table to support end up board lumber in which the planer table has a pair of parallel extending handles in a plane parallel to and below the upper surface of the table. According to the invention, a pair of parallel extending rails straddle the handles on opposite sides of the planer table and a pair of parallel extending guides are employed to span the upper surface of the planer table. Attaching members are utilized in cooperation with the guides to support the board lumber end up to facilitate planing of the narrow edge.
