A graphic alignment tool and a method of using the same are disclosed. The graphic alignment provides for a placement of a graphic on a substrate. The graphic alignment tool includes a T-shaped center bar having a base vertically disposed and a collar plate laterally disposed at a top end of the base. A width bar is dimensioned to laterally extend across a width of the substrate. A rod is configured to be received in each of the slot and the alignment slot to slidably retain the width bar in a squared orientation relative the T-shaped center bar. A logo grid may also be provided for alignment of a graphic on a chest area of the substrate. The logo grid may be slidably retained with the T-shaped center bar via a rod and a grid slot defined in the logo grid.

This disclosure relates generally to a robotic gripper to hold a writing and object creation device for writing and object creation. The robotic gripper includes clamping unit, spring loaded slider unit and outer housing unit. The clamping unit include a finger collet with three or more flexible finger positions equispaced within 360 degrees with two areas of contact on each finger in front part for firm gripping. The spring loaded slider unit include a middle housing to transfer a force from the writing and object creation device to a force sensitive resistor (FSR). A micro actuator induces a required force to the writing and object creation device based on feedback from the force sensitive resistor. The middle housing includes a plunger shaft connected with a preload spring. The outer housing unit configured to hold a micro actuator, cotter pins, locator pins to the micro actuator, and a push pull key.

A stencil device and associated method of use for drawing, painting, etching, or otherwise marking multiple parallel lines are disclosed. The stencil may include two or more slots for drawing parallel lines, with even spacing between the lines. The stencil may also include multiple groupings of multiple slots. The stencil may be used for drawing a single musical staff, or may be configured so as to enable easy and repeatable marking of multiple musical staves. The slots may have varying widths and shapes, such as including curves, to allow for maintaining a substantially straight line even if the material of the stencil flexes or deforms during use. Various widths of slots may also be used to accommodate different marking instruments and dip diameters of different instruments.

A carpenter square includes a triangular body having a first edge, a second edge, and a third edge, wherein the first, second, and third edges cooperate to define a perimeter edge of the triangular body. A fence is pivoted to the first edge for movement among first, second, and third positions. In the first position, the fence is normal to the triangular body in a first direction. In the second position, the fence is normal to the triangular body in a second direction opposite the first direction. In the third position, the fence is coplanar to the triangular body.

A cement siding tolerance device and measurement tool, which has a main panel having a tab and a ridge, whereby the tab and the ridge perpendicularly extend from the main panel at opposite sides. The main panel has a front face, a rear face, a top edge, a bottom edge, first and second lateral edges, and a plurality of holes. The main panel has ruler-markings adjacent to the first and second lateral edges. The main panel is rectangular in shape. The tab perpendicularly extends from the front face separated a predetermined distance from the bottom edge, and the ridge perpendicularly extends from the bottom edge at the rear face. The tab and the ridge measure clearances and gaps between siding and trim products with solid surfaces building elements.

A carpenter square includes a body including a first, second, and third edges. A fence is pivoted to the first edge for movement among first, second, and third positions. In the first and second positions, the fence is normal to the body. In the third position, the fence is coplanar to the body. A hinge assembly pivots the fence to the body and includes a notch in the body, a recess in the notch, and a tab projecting from the fence and fit over the pin for reciprocating and swinging movement. The tab moves between a neutral stance, in which the tab is mis-registered with the recess and disables movement of the fence among the first, second, and third positions, and an advanced stance, in which the tab is registered with the recess and enables movement of the fence among the first, second, and third positions.
