Abstract: The ground anchor assembly comprises a collar, a T-post, a guy line, and a guy line attachment member. The guy line attachment member is coupled to the guy line. The collar comprises a perimeter wall and an adjustment member. The perimeter wall defines an internal void adapted to receive a portion of the T-post such that when the T-post is positioned within the internal void, the perimeter wall surrounds a perimeter of the portion of the T-post and restrains rotational movement of the collar relative to the T-post. The adjustment member is moveable from a first position to a second position, the first position being one in which a distal end of the adjustment member does not contact the T-post, the second position being one in which distal end contacts the T-post between adjacent stubs of the T-post.
Abstract: A gutter extension holding device which inserts at a terminal portion of a gutter extension includes a connecting piece or cap having four side portions which operate as a collar around the extension and at least one tab extending rearward and defining a channel configured to receive a terminal end of the extension. The device includes a stake to insert in the ground to retain the extension in position. The channel is tapered to accommodate a friction fit of the inserted extension, and a frame outlines a flow opening of the device against which the extension abuts. In one aspect three tabs are configured to receive the extension, where a bottom side portion is devoid of a tab to accommodate uninhibited flow of water or materials from the extension.
Abstract: A ground attaching assembly for confining an attached object to a limited distance from a predetermined ground position includes an elongated stake member having a ground penetrating end and a driven impact end spaced from the penetrating end. The driven impact end is capable of receiving blows from an associated pounding member such as a hammer. An object securing line is connected to the stake member at an attachment position between the penetrating end and the driven impact end, providing space between the attachment position and the impact end whereby the securing line may be spaced from the impact end and thereby be protected from blows from the associated pounding member.
