A power tool assembly includes a hand-held power tool, a dust collector removably coupled to the power tool, and first and second power tool battery packs each of which is interchangeably coupled with the power tool and the dust collector for separately powering the power tool and the dust collector, respectively.

An exercise device having many advantageous features is described, including the ability to provide users with multiple modes of training by transforming the device into different configurations. Users can exercise their cardiovascular endurance by using the device in its jump rope configuration. Users can also engage in muscular resistance training using the same device configured to one of multiple possible resistance training configurations. Resistance training configurations provide a method of suspending users' bodyweight such that they can train their muscular strength capacity by exerting themselves against the force of gravity. Resistance can be selected from nearly zero resistance to a user's full body weight, with the ability to easily adjust between exercises and between users, and the ability to easily transform the device between configurations to provide for versatility and ease-of-use. The device includes an inelastic length member with two clip assemblies and two handles and/or grips at both ends.

A tool is provided that includes unitary plate that includes a blade portion and a tang portion. The blade portion can include an edge. The tang portion can include a positioning hole, a first hole, a slot, a second hole, a rivet hole, and one or more teeth (also referred to as one or more barbs) on a side of the tang portion. The tool can further include a hilt member which includes a through passage, a tab, and a notch. The tool includes an overlay on a body to create a handle for gripping the tool. The tool further includes a hammerhead cap on an end of the body, the hammerhead cap is coupled to the handle with a rivet through the rivet hole.

A paint roller retention and release assembly includes a cylinder has a first end and a second end. A perimeter wall extends between the first and second ends. A handle is attached to the first end of the cylinder such that the cylinder is rotatable with respect to the handle. A plurality of couplers is mounted in the perimeter wall. The couplers are each movable from a deployed position extending outwardly of the perimeter wall to a stored position is substantially flush with the perimeter wall. A roller brush is formed in a sleeve that is removably positioned on the cylinder. The couplers each have an outer surface that frictionally engages an interior of the roller brush when the couplers are in the deployed position.

Provided is a tool that includes a handle assembly including a top portion and a bottom portion. The tool also includes a lock plate disposed between the top and bottom portions and having a deflectable arm having a free end biased towards the top portion, a fixed end opposite the free end, an inner edge, an outer edge, and a detent near the free end and the inner edge. The tool additionally includes a blade having first and second ends, an indent in a bottom surface of the blade near the first end for engaging the detent in a closed position, and a ramp on the bottom surface near the indent defining a reduced thickness portion of the blade that reduces in thickness from the indent towards an edge of the blade to reduce contact between the detent and the blade during rotation of the blade.

A multipurpose utility attachment device for equipping a variety of tools to an adjustable shaft includes a grip. The grip is a handle and has a flat end. A telescopic shaft comprises a first portion, a second portion, and a pair of spring pins. A proximal end of the first portion is coupled to the flat end of the grip. The second portion is nested within the first portion. The second portion can adjust the length of the telescopic shaft by moving within the first portion. A pair of spring pins is positioned within the second portion and secures the second portion in a fixed length relative to the first portion. A second spring pin is used for securing a utility attachment to the telescopic shaft. The utility attachment can be a variety of wilderness survival tools. A hammock attachment can be used by a pair of telescopic shafts.
