Abstract: A low cost scraping implement has a plastic, elongated handle component with a recess in one surface thereof. A square of plate glass is held in the recess between a pair of downwardly extending safety, side surfaces in the handle by a retaining plate provided with a complementary recess. A bolt is received in aligned countersunk openings drilled through the handle member and the retaining plate and a nut threaded onto the shank of the bolt draws the retaining plate towards the handle member to clamp the glass square in place. The glass square can be repositioned within the recess to present eight different scraping edges. A worn or broken glass plate can be readily replaced to renew the scraper.

Abstract: A low cost scraping implement has a wooden or plastic handle with a recess in one surface. A square of plate glass, metal or plastic is held in the recess by a wood retaining plate. A carriage bolt is received in aligned openings drilled through the handle member and the retaining plate. A wing nut threaded onto the shank of the carriage bolt draws the retaining plate towards the handle member to clamp the glass square in place. The glass square can be repositioned within the recess to present eight different scraping edges. A worn or broken glass plate can be readily replaced to renew the scraper.

Abstract: A low cost skylight which can be provided in kit form for installation includes at least two rafter bow members. Each of these members has a convex upper edge and a straight lower edge. The straight lower edge of each bow member rests on a rafter at the edge of a roof opening. The skylight includes a sheet of flexible, light-transmitting material which overlays the rafter bow members. Fasteners, such as round head wood screws, are used to fasten the upper and lower edges of the flexible sheet to the roof surface. Gaskets and flashing members are disclosed for establishing watertight seals at the edges of the skylight.
