Abstract: This invention is directed to a screw setting device which is connected to an electric drill and is designed not to release from a screw head until a screw is completely installed. The screw setting device includes a shank, prongs, a collet a driving tip, a sleeve and a collar. The shank attaches to a chuck of the electric drill and is connected to the driving tip and the prongs. The driving tip and prongs are adapted to engage front, rear surfaces and a recess in the screw head. The screw head cannot be released from the driving tip and prongs when the sleeve is slid to the forward position. As the screw becomes completely installed, the sleeve slides rearward, releasing the screw setting device from the screw.

Abstract: A paint tray is provide for applying paint evenly onto a commercial paint roller. The paint tray includes a centralized paint well and two opposing roller ramps. The ramps include a plurality of evenly spaced, upwardly extending spikes that engage the roller nap and aid in its rotation. The paint tray also has a plurality of roller end wipers located along a right and left side of the paint tray. The end wipers remove excess paint from the ends of the roller, which aids in eliminating drips and runs on the painted surface. The paint tray also has a four outboard legs that support the paint tray off of the ground and provide for increased stability and resistance to movement when applying paint to the roller.

Abstract: An improved apparatus for adjustably attaching a tray to a ladder side member. The apparatus includes a first clamping member for attachment to a ladder, an L-shaped support having a support leg and a mounting leg perpendicular to the support leg, thereby forming the L-shape and first and second tray clamping members, which allow a tray to be securely fastened to a ladder The support leg provides support to the bottom of the paint container when the device is mounted to the ladder. The mounting leg is attached to the clamping assembly and is provided with elongated slots therein for bolts to pass therethrough. The bolts also pass through the clamping assembly. The bolts are provided with threaded knobs and are used to draw the first clamp, the first and second tray clamp members and the mounting leg of the L-shaped support together when tightened.

Abstract: An improved apparatus for adjustably attaching a container to a ladder side member. The apparatus includes a ladder clamp assembly, an offset support arm, and a container clamp assembly. The ladder clamp assembly allows releasable attachment with the side rail of a ladder. The ladder clamp assembly includes a first and second ladder clamp jaws that are positioned around the ladder side rail and clamped by tightening a fastener with an adjustment knob. The container clamp assembly allows releasable attachment with a container. The container clamp assembly includes a C-shaped member and an elongated support member. The members are positioned so the C-shaped member is around the lip of and in contact with the inside of the container and the elongated support member is in contact with the outside of the container. The members are clamped together by tightening a second fastener with a second adjustment knob.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a lifting device that can be used to lift, support and align articles such as cabinets, counter tops, shelving and the like during installation and removal. The lifting device includes a base, a hydraulic ram assembly, an adjustable L-shaped bracket assembly and an adjustable platform. The lifting device has a height adjustable range from thirteen inches to eight feet and is adapted to allow the load to be positioned directly over the lift or offset if an extended outward reach is needed. The adjustable platform is designed to allow the lifted article to be pivoted in multiple axes of rotation thereby allowing precision alignment of the cabinet with respect to the wall to which it is to be secured prior to installation.
