Patent number: 11958120Abstract: This disclosure is directed to a miter gauge and methods of use thereof. Generally, this disclosure is related to a miter bar of a miter gauge that includes at least one spacer member which applies pressure to a side of a channel defined within a worktable. The application of this pressure by the at least one spacer member enables the miter bar to remain in a substantially constant position between the first side and second side of the channel and reduces the degree of play between the miter bar and the first and second sides of the channel. Retainer members are provided on a bottom of the miter bar to aid in preventing the miter bar from lifting vertically out of the channel during use.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: WOODPECKERS, LLCInventor: Wayne Sherman

Publication number: 20240100733Abstract: A woodworking bridge has two base walls or components that enable the bridge to span an abutment or joint between two work pieces. A top surface enables a clamp to engage the bridge to permit the clamp to apply a clamping force to a first work piece and a second work piece on both sides of the joint and prevent the clamp from contacting the joint. This allows any adhesive that oozes from the joint to be cleaned without curing in the top surface and/or the bottom surface of the two work pieces. The work pieces may then be stained without any cured adhesive in the pores of the work pieces where stain is applied.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 5, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Applicant: Woodpeckers, LLCInventor: Wayne Sherman

Publication number: 20240042644Abstract: A table saw jig for guiding offcut sides of various types of workpiece. The table saw jig includes a base that operably engages with a table of a table saw. The table saw jig also includes a slider that is moveably engaged inside of the base and is adapted to guide an offcut side of at least one workpiece along the table of the table saw. The table saw jig also includes at least one attachment assembly that operably engages with the base and is adapted to engage the base with the table of the table saw. The table saw jig also includes at least one calibration assembly that operably engages with the slider and the base. The at least one calibration assembly is configured to calibrate the slider relative to a blade of the table saw when the base is operably engaged with the table of the table saw.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 8, 2022Publication date: February 8, 2024Applicant: Woodpeckers, LLCInventor: Wayne Sherman

Patent number: 8632677Abstract: An aquarium cleaner system for cleaning the bottom surface of an aquarium. The system has a suction means with a suction body. The suction body has an open enlarged lower end, an open upper end and a propeller system. There is also a filter with an opening fluidly connected to the open upper end of the suction body, an impurities entrapment surface and a fluid return surface. There is further provided a controller for turning on or off the suction means according to a preprogrammed schedule and a random position effecter, such that when a new cleaning position is desired, the suction means is terminated for a first predetermined duration so that the suction body causes the aquarium bottom cleaner to rise from the current cleaning position before turning on the suction means for a second predetermined duration.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2011Date of Patent: January 21, 2014Inventors: Wayne Sherman, Kathy Reulbach

Publication number: 20120181222Abstract: An aquarium cleaner system for cleaning the bottom surface of an aquarium. The system has a suction means with a naturally buoyant suction body. The suction body has an open enlarged lower end, an open upper end and a propeller system. The lower end is adapted to be seated on the bottom surface of the aquarium and the open enlarged lower end is fluidly connected to the open upper end. The suction means creates an untreated water flow from the open enlarged lower end to the open upper end. There is also a filter with an opening fluidly connected to the open upper end of the suction body, an impurities entrapment surface and a fluid return surface. The untreated water flow is received at the opening and forced through the impurities entrapment surface, leaving behind impurities on the impurities entrapment surface and creating a return flow in a cavity defined by the fluid return surface and the interior surface of a filter housing.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 17, 2011Publication date: July 19, 2012Inventors: Wayne Sherman, Kathy Reulbach

Patent number: 4063064Abstract: Apparatus is disclosed in a system for drilling holes with a laser beam in a plurality of discrete moving workpieces carried by a support which moves each workpiece sequentially along a predetermined path at a predetermined velocity, the apparatus including means for sequentially tracking along a portion of such path each workpiece being drilled seriatim by the laser beam. This tracing apparatus includes means for directing the laser beam generally transversely of the direction of movement of the workpiece on the support and a mirror for folding the transversely directed laser beam toward the workpieces with means for oscillating the folding mirror synchronously with the movement of the workpiece to track the workpiece as it moves.Type: GrantFiled: August 23, 1976Date of Patent: December 13, 1977Assignee: Coherent RadiationInventors: Richard J. Saunders, Wayne Sherman Mefferd

Trees of ‘UFGlo’ are self-fertile and regularly bear heavy annual crops of early season fruit that are medium size (125g) for its ripening season. Fruit are uniformly firm with non-melting white flesh. Fruit are nearly round, and uniform with substantially symmetrical shape, and have an attractive 70 to 80% red skin. The fruit of ‘UFGlo’ usually ripen 10 to 14 days before ‘UFSharp’ peach in mid-May at Gainesville, Fla.Type: GrantFiled: January 5, 2010Date of Patent: April 5, 2011Assignee: Florida Foundation Seed Producers, Inc.Inventors: Jose Chaparro, Wayne Sherman
