The universal coupling pin key is a fastening device. The universal coupling pin key forms a detent that attaches a first mechanical structure to a second mechanical structure. The universal coupling pin key further forms a simple tool that dislodges or prys apart a fastened mechanical structure formed from two components. The universal coupling pin key comprises a tool, a grip, a retractable tether, and a cable management system. The tool is the mechanical structure of the universal coupling pin key that fastens and detaches the mechanical structures. The grip is a handle used to manipulate the tool. The retractable tether attaches the tool and the grip to the cable management system. The cable management system deploys and retracts the tether. The cable management system further anchors the universal coupling pin key to an anchor point.

An article lifting device for lifting articles to be maneuvered is provided. The article lifting device includes at least two plane faces; at least one curved face; and at least one extension member. The at least two plane faces include a first plane face having opposite ends; a second plane face having opposite ends. The first and second plane faces are coupled to each other from one of the respective ends of the first and second faces. The at least one curved face is coupled to the respective opposite ends of the first and second plane faces. The at least one extension member may extend from at least one end of the at least one curved face. Further, an article lifting assembly is also provided that includes article lifting device and at least one stopper member.

A log lifting device for raising a log into a cutting position includes a cylinder, a handle, and a wedge. The handle is coupled to and extends from the cylinder equally distant from opposing ends of the cylinder. The wedge is coupled to and extends from the cylinder proximate to the handle. The wedge is substantially perpendicular to the handle. The wedge is configured to be positioned beneath a felled log, positioning a user to grasp and pull on the handle to rotate the cylinder to apply a lifting force to the log so that the log is supported upon the handle above a surface. The log thus is positioned to be safely cut by the user using a chain saw, or other log cutting implement.

A staple removing device has a pair of levers pivotally coupled at one end on an axis such that their other ends are capable of movement toward one another. A bias spring acts on the pair of levers for biasing the pair of levers into an open position. A pair of extraction jaws on the other end of the pair of levers have engaging ends extending toward the other of the pair of levers for engaging the underside of a staple embedded in a material to lift the staple away from the material. A capture slot is formed one of the pair of levers that captures a staple when removed.
