Abstract: A portable circular saw guide system for use with a portable circular saw. The system may comprise a U-shaped channel track, a saw sled, and a spacer bar. A user may make accurate and straight lengthwise cuts in sheeting material quickly and easily without employing a table saw using the system. The user's own portable circular saw is coupled to the top surface of the saw sled using the sled's two biasing clamps. A spacer bar is used to gauge the distance between the inside flat surface (distal edge) of the saw blade and the channel track for securing the exact position of the portable circular saw on the saw sled. The channel track is clamped parallel to the cut-line and the saw sled placed within the U-shaped channel. The saw is turned on and the saw with the coupled sled is pushed through the channel to make the cut.

Abstract: An article carrier system for use on a roof of a motor vehicle such as a pick-up truck. The system includes a housing within which cross bar components may be stowed when not in use, and which also includes one or more stowage compartments or stowage bins for stowing vehicle article carrier accessories. In one embodiment the cross bar components are detached from the housing and reattached to the housing such that they extend width-wise along the roof of the vehicle. In another embodiment, the cross bar components are pivotally supported and may be pivoted between stowed and deployed positions. A removable cover allows the cross bar components to be locked within the housing.

Abstract: An assembly of floor panels adapted to be laid adjacent to one another to form a floor is disclosed, wherein at least one of the assembly of floor panels comprises an exposed floor surface and a covered surface, an opening through said floor and covered surfaces, and a junction box that is attached to the covered surface and enclosing the opening. Further, a receptacle is adapted to be mounted to the junction box, and a cover is mounted to be disposed from a first position that permits at least one utility cable to be placed through the opening and coupled to the receptacle, to a second position preventing the one utility cable from being placed through the opening.
