Abstract: The thread protector formed of a wire wound to form a helical portion having a proximal end, a distal end, a thread side, a protected side disposed at a protected diameter. The thread protector adapted to threadably engage the inside threads of a threaded inlet such as a clean-out used in piping systems defining a threaded passageway. The thread side disposed on a flank of the inside thread. The protected diameter smaller than the minor diameter of the threaded inlet whereby a protected passageway is formed along the protected side of the helical portion. The protected side spaced from a peak of the inside thread.

Abstract: The glove with clip is a clip on the outside of the back of a glove having a spring loaded raised lip urged against the glove or a spring base on the glove to removably hold papers, notes, instructions or lightweight material such as sand paper. The clip may be a flat metal clip having a spring base on the glove, a spring wire attached to the glove or a magnetic closure adapted to releasably hold papers or similar material used by a worker such as a plumber or electrician.

Abstract: The can holder comprises a can support for attaching to a vertical or horizontal support without tools. The can support comprises a top plate having a can surrounding hole, a can floor portion spaced from the top plate by a vertical spacer, a vertical attach portion and a horizontal attach portion. The horizontal attach portion may comprise a back leg forming a U-shaped channel generally parallel to a top plate back edge and between the back leg and the vertical spacer for attachment to a horizontal structure such as a joist or ladder rung. The vertical attach portion may comprise a U-shaped channel cut out of the top plate and a projecting tab on the can floor portion for attachment to a vertical structure such as a building stud or ladder rung. Slots and holes in top plate are adapted to hold tools.

Abstract: Bracket for mounting a pipe away from a vertical wall having a linear support to be secured to a vertical wall and a pipe receptacle for receiving and supporting the pipe. The pipe receptacle includes a segment of a circle configuration, and an extension is connected between the linear support and the pipe receptacle, wherein the extension extends upward, non-horizontally, non-vertically, and away from the pipe receptacle toward the linear support so as to position a pipe within the pipe receptacle a distance away from the linear support. A brace is connected between the linear support and a lower portion of the pipe receptacle to provide additional support to position the pipe receptacle a distance away from a wall to which the linear support is to be secured.
