Abstract: A wet wheel cutter including a table top (12) mounted upon a support body, (14) a cutter blade (20) projecting above the table top (12) and being movably mounted for movement between a first angular position and a second angular position relative to the table (top 12), the first and second angular positions being different, the table top (12) being maintained at the same orientation relative to the support body (14) when the blade (20) is at its first and second angular positions.

Abstract: A wall plug for enabling fixings to be attached to a wall, the wall plug comprising an elongate body having an inner insertion end and an outer end, a through bore extending from the outer end toward the inner end, the through bore being adapted to axially receive an elongate drill of a setting tool, and body end portion extending axially in-board from said inner insertion end, the body end portion having at least one axially extending recess communicating with an axial end region of said through bore so as to expose a side portion of the setting tool when received in said through bore.

Abstract: A sharpening apparatus (16) for a blade-like cutting implement. The sharpening apparatus has an elongate body (18) and a cutting edge extending widthwise across one end of the body (11) at a predetermined angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the body (11). The cutting edge is formed by an inclined face formed on one side face of the body. The apparatus includes a cradle (26) for holding a blade-like implement to be sharpened and a mounting body for mounting the cradle (26) relative to a grinding surface. The cradle is mounted on a pair of guide rails (22, 24) for movement along a rectilinear path, the cradle including first and second rail followers slidably connected to a first and second of the guide rails respectively. The cradle (26) includes a seat for locating the blade-like implement at a reselected reference position on the cradle (26) such that the cutting edge of the implement to be sharpened is located parallel to said rectilinear path.

Abstract: A security label for attachment to an article, the security label including a planar security tag laminated in-between first and second carrier layers, the second layer overlying the planar security tag and having a peripheral marginal portion which projects beyond and extends around the peripheral edge of the security tag, said peripheral marginal portion of the second layer being bonded in face to face contact with said first layer, said first layer having a peripheral marginal portion which projects beyond and extends around the peripheral edge of the second layer, said peripheral marginal portion of the first layer providing a surface for securance to said article.

Abstract: A cutting device for producing an end cut in an elongate article (10), the cutting device including a handle (12) movably mounted on a base (11) and a support table (40) mounted on said base (11), the support table (40) having an upwardly facing support surface (SF) on which an article (10) to be cut may be mounted, and a cutting assembly (CA) including a disposable cutting blade (38), the cutting assembly (CA) being detachably mounted on said handle (12) to enable replacement of said blade (38).

Abstract: A hook/hanger for use at the top of a door is formed in two separate parts in the form of a plastics material molding, having a flat rear surface and a central front hook-shaped part, and a sheet metal pressing which has a leg snap-fitting in a slot in the molding extending inwards from its top surface, in which is provided a recess to receive flush a body part of the pressing which engages the top surface of the door, in use. The body part has barbs to be driven into said door top surface to retain the hook/hanger in place. The pressing has a very small thickness to allow the door to be fully closed even with the hook in place.

Abstract: A tile cutter has a base molding of plastic material, which defines a surface for reception of a tile to be cut/broken, and spaced upstanding ends. Cutting/breaking forces applied during use are resisted/absorbed by a steel bar extending between the upstanding ends underneath the tile reception surface. Metallic guide rods extend between the upstanding ends above the tile-reception surface. A steel connecting plate is received in an upstanding end that is located adjacent where tile cutting/breaking takes place. In use, the guide rods carry a scoring and cutting/breaking device that slides on the rods. The connecting plate interconnects the steel bar and the guide rods without using fixing devices. A breaker rod fits in the surface of the base immediately above the position of the steel bar.

Abstract: An adapter for use with a powered grinding tool having a driven grinding wheel has a pivotally mounting part on a body thereof, and a drill bit holder engageable with the mounting part in either of two orientations for sharpening a tip of a drill bit clamped in a set position in the drill bit holder at the grinding wheel, the engagement being completed when the drill bit engages on a stop bar at the front of the mounting part. Also disclosed is a setting arrangement for setting the drill bit in its holder including stop means for engagement by the drill tip upon longitudinal setting of the drill bit, and drill rotation setting means slidable relative to the stop means for rotational setting of the drill bit. A powered grinding tool having the features of the adapter formed as part thereof is also disclosed.
