  • Patent number: 11752616
    Abstract: A rack for supporting items defines a channel or trough to receive support bases or blocks therein. Each support base carries at least one item. One item may be a router bit. The rack and support base(s) may collectively define a router bit storage and display system that can be mounted to a support surface, such as a wall or a router table. The system enables a woodworker to safely store and easily access router bits for use in their router device when needed. The router bits are maintained spaced apart from each other when supported by the rack so as to not damage each other. The system can be modular or modularly expanded to grow with the woodworker such that when the woodworker acquires more router bits, the system can add more racks and support bases to ensure there is adequate room for the woodworker's additional router bits.

  • Publication number: 20230194012
    Abstract: A modular blast gate for a dust collection system. The blast gate includes first and second regions. The first region has a first configuration and enables securement of a duct of the dust collection system to the first region via a first connector mechanism. The second region has a second configuration different from the first configuration and enables securement of the duct to the second region via a second connector mechanism different from the first connector mechanism. The blast gate is usable to connect differently configured ducts, hoses, or pipes to equipment that generates particulate material. The blast gate is mountable to the equipment or a support surface. Two of the modular blast gates may be joined to one another to enable two ducts to be connected together.
