Guitar Pick Retriever
A guitar pick retriever includes an elongated shaft that has a width small enough for fitting between a string of a guitar and an edge of a sound hole of the guitar. The elongated shaft is sufficiently long for reaching within a hollow body of a guitar through a sound hole of the guitar. An attracting device is affixed at one end of the elongated shaft.
The attracting device having attractive properties (e.g., suction, static charge, stickiness) such that, upon contact and/or pressure with a guitar pick, the attracting device temporarily holds onto the guitar pick for removing the guitar pick from the hollow body of the guitar.
Mechanical Overstock Audit Tool and Associated Methods
Example overstock audit tools and associated methods are described. The example overstock audit tool includes a body defining a distal end and a proximal end, and a cutout formed in the body and extending from the proximal end. The cutout can be configured and dimensioned to be placed against a shelf edge to align the handle portion with the shelf edge. The overstock audit tool includes an elongated portion attached to and extending from the handle portion. An example overstock audit tool can include a roller mechanism configured to slidably secure the handle portion to the shelf edge.

Fishing lure retrieval apparatus
A fishing lure retrieval apparatus including a telescopic cylindrical pole and a looped strap attached to the cylindrical pole. A cylindrical hook attachment member is attached to and extended outwards from a front end of a front portion of the cylindrical pole. An S-shaped hook member is attached to a front surface of the cylindrical hook attachment member. The S-shaped hook member is perpendicularly disposed to and extended upwards above the cylindrical hook attachment member. The S-shaped hook member is selectively engageable around a fishing lure.
GRIP TONGS APPARATUS
When the push handle is manipulated, the manipulation lever is pulled by the wire so that the tong portions are parted. When manipulation of the push handle is released, the tong portions are pressed against each other so that the item may be easily fixed between the tong portions. When the manipulation of the push handle is released, the tong portions are rotated and automatically clamp the item located therebetween so that it is unnecessary to continuously manipulate the push handle to fix the item between the tong portions and it is possible to reduce an amount of grip used as well as reducing a manipulation time of the push handle and to prevent fatigability accumulating in hands or damage to hands due to the reduction in manipulation time of the push handle.

WALKING CANE APPARATUS
Disclosed herein is a walking cane having a grabbing mechanism operable to extend away from a base of the apparatus. The cane comprises a hollow support shaft having an upper end proximate to and engaged with a handle, and a lower end proximate to and engaged with a base having a plurality of feet extending downward away; an inner chamber defined within the hollow shaft at least partially open on the lower end through a bottom opening in the base; and a grabbing mechanism disposed within the inner chamber comprising an actuator located proximate to the upper end mechanically coupled to a pincer assembly located proximate to the base, such that movement of the actuator in a first direction causes the pincer assembly to form a closed confirmation, and movement of the actuator in a second direction opposite the first direction causes the pincer assembly to form an open confirmation.

Edge protector clip kit
The edge protector clip kit is a device that is adapted to work with an edge protector that is placed on a top, edge of a load of cargo. The edge protector clip kit includes a telescoping pole that is manually grasped in order for a user to manipulate the edge protector. The edge protector clip kit includes a clip holder that is adapted to engage the edge protector from below, and which enables manipulation of the edge protector via the telescoping pole. The telescoping pole is affixed to the clip holder. The clip holder includes a pair of armatures that are adapted to engage opposing sides of a vertical portion of the edge protector. The clip holder also includes a light and on/off button.
SYSTEM AND METHOD OF ROTATING ROTOR BLADES FROM A DISTANCE
In one aspect, there is provided a rotary blade movement system including a retaining member configured to receive a rotor blade, a graspable arm, and a coupling mechanism operable to removably couple the retaining member to the graspable arm. The rotor blade movement system is configured to enable a user to adjust the position of the rotor blade by moving the graspable arm. The coupling mechanism can be a ball and socket joint. In one aspect, there is a method of rotating a rotor blade using a rotary blade movement system.
