A carrying device includes a generally planar framework and a plurality of straps coupled to the framework. At least two of the plurality of straps extend horizontally across the framework, and at least another two of the plurality of straps extend vertically across the framework, wherein each of the at least two horizontally extending straps intersects each of the at least two vertically extending straps. Further, each of the plurality of straps includes a loop, and each loop comprises two opposing vortices, the opposing vortices extending away from a perimeter of the framework thereby defining a pair of spaced apart handles.

A spin chuck jig includes a handle having first holes, a base having second holes, wherein a number of the second holes and a number of first holes are the same, and bolts each penetrating one of the first holes and one of the second holes so that the handle and the base are attached to a spin chuck to be lifted from a spin process equipment.

An apparatus for manipulating assembly components into desired configurations and a method for using same, where the assembly component includes a first and second bore set at a first and second transverse angles, for receiving attaching members. The apparatus includes a pair of attaching members that engage the bores to extend toward each other, and a manipulating member securing the base portions of the attaching members to each other. The attaching members may include side struts that relieve side pressure on the bores and may also include internal air passageways. The manipulating member has a length that prevents the secured attaching members from disengaging from their bores, and provides a location for a moving device to indirectly connect to the assembly component. The moving device can move the assembly component in a different directions to achieve different configurations.

Example aspects of a fenestration-lowering device and a method for using a fenestration-lowering device are disclosed. The fenestration-lowering device can include a frame; a support platform configured to move relative to the frame; and a hydraulic lowering mechanism configured to move the support platform. The method for using the fenestration-lowering device can include providing a hydraulic lowering mechanism for moving a support platform of the fenestration-lowering device from a raised orientation to a lowered orientation; setting a fenestration product on the support platform in the raised orientation; activating the hydraulic lowering mechanism to move the support platform from the raised orientation to the lowered orientation; and removing the fenestration product from the support platform.

A device to help ease the moving of large appliances, furniture and other white goods is presented. The device allows easy gripping by a user or users. The device has an adjustable length belt with a connector and a receiving end. The connector end is coupled into the receiver in a secure manner. The belt is adjusted using an adjustable coupling which is used to make the belt taut around an appliance or to allow slack into the belt when the belt is placed around the appliance or is to be removed from the appliance. The belt also has a plurality of handles which may be adjusted to any position along the belt. The handles provide a secure and steady grip for the users.
