Publication number: 20240217138Abstract: A tile saw includes a saw with a cutting blade, a frame supporting the saw, a table supporting a workpiece and being slidable relative to the frame, and a rear fence secured to the table. The rear fence has an engagement surface and is adjustable between an operating position and a bypassed position. The bypassed position includes the engagement surface of the fence being no higher than even with the planar surface of the table to allow a workpiece to extend beyond a rear edge of the table. In the operating position, the engagement surface of the rear fence projects axially from the planar surface of the table to support the workpiece as the workpiece is pushed into the cutting blade during operation. The fence can be adjusted between the operating and bypassed positions by using any one of a cam lever clamp, pin and guideway, or rotatable latch.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2024Publication date: July 4, 2024Applicant: TECHTRONIC CORDLESS GPInventors: Nicholas Costanzo, Michael Hart, Eric M.

Publication number: 20160023372Abstract: A mortising tool or mortiser including a handle having a first longitudinal axis and a head having a second longitudinal axis. The mortiser includes an interchangeable scorer holder that has a first side and a second side. A first scorer is fixedly attached to the first side, and a second scorer different from the first scorer is fixedly attached to the second side. The interchangeable scorer holder is positionable in a first orientation substantially within a chamber to expose the first scorer and positionable in a second orientation substantially within the chamber to expose the second scorer. A guide is received by the mortiser and orients one of the first scorer and the second scorer at a desired distance from a face of a door. The guide is positionable in two orientations to orient one of the scorers at either a first or second distance from the face of the door.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 23, 2014Publication date: January 28, 2016Inventors: Richard M.
