An extendable dry-erase board with a telescoping hand-held support extension handle pivotally-connected at one end to an accordion-folding dry erase board. The device can be easily transported by those traveling via bus, bicycle, walking, etc. to any sporting event, concert, or public demonstration and deployed instantly on-site, the dry-erase board being unfolded into a large prominent sign whereupon a message can be inscribed on the board, erased and rewritten as needed.

A reusable writing surface is provided having a board having a front side and a rear side. A plurality of magnets is positioned on the rear side, wherein the plurality of magnets is configured to magnetically attach to a plurality of removable magnetic legs. The plurality of magnets are positioned such that the plurality of removable magnetic legs are configured to stand the reusable writing surface in either a vertical orientation or a horizontal orientation depending on which magnets of the plurality of magnets each magnetic leg attaches.

A multifunctional illuminated lighting pad is an apparatus that enables a user to write with one hand, rather than requiring a hand to hold a clipboard or writing surface and another hand to write down information. The apparatus provides a mechanism by which to secure to a user, thus preventing difficulty or danger resulting from a loose clipboard. An illumination source provides ample light, allowing the user to read and write in otherwise poorly-lit areas. A portion of the opaque backing may be secured to a user's pocket and molded to the rough curvature of a leg. An exposed portion of a backing surface holds a writing surface, an LED, and a clip. A thumb-pull cut allows the user to insert or remove a reference sheet from between the plexiglass front plate and the backing, thus allowing the user to refer to information behind the plexiglass front plate while writing.

A mountable tray. The mountable tray may include a main plate having a top surface, a bottom surface, a top edge, a bottom edge spaced apart from and parallel with the top edge, a first side edge, and a second side edge spaced apart from and parallel with the first side edge; an upper edge plate extending downward from at least a portion of the top edge of the main plate bottom surface, wherein the upper edge plate may include a cutout portion formed therein; a support member formed on the bottom surface of the main plate and proximate to the upper edge plate, wherein the support member may be substantially parallel with and spaced a distance apart from the upper edge plate; and a securing mechanism disposed at an upper portion of the top surface of the main plate.

A work surface for a vehicle includes a first leaf, a second leaf, and a dual-stage hinge pivotably coupling the first and second leafs. The dual-stage hinge includes a first pivot axis and a second pivot axis.

A tablet-like device is configured to have a slightly negative buoyancy and to hold a sheet of waterproof synthetic paper, or another removable, waterproof recording sheet, onto which notes or messages or sketches can be recorded via a writing implement, in an underwater or marine environment, or another extreme or severe environment. Since the tablet device is configured for use of sheets of waterproof synthetic paper, divers can work with their own personal pre-printed material underwater. Further, the tablet device also has the advantages of cost savings and reduced environmental impact.

A ringed binder with moveable platforms is disclosed. The ringed binder including a center support section; a first platform connected to the center support section and configured to move between a lowered position and a raised position; and a second platform connected to the center support section and configured to move between a lowered position and a raised position.

A writing system comprises a writing tool comprising a barrel having a first end and a second end, a medium holder having a first end and a second end, the medium holder disposed within the barrel, wherein the medium holder is adapted to support a medium applicator to protrude from the first end of the barrel, and a magnetic core disposed within the barrel proximate to the first end of the barrel.
