The tool also includes a stabilizer plate connected to the blade to seat the tool on the drain and prevent the tool from falling through the drain into the drain pipe. The tool further includes one of various tool adapters.

The tool adapter can be a nut to be spanned by an adjustable or open-end wrench, or a hole into which a socket wrench drive or the tip of a breaker bar or T bar can be inserted, to rotate the tool. The tool adapter can also be a pipe wrench extension so that a pipe wrench can be used to rotate the tool. Alternatively, the tool can include a device, such as a T bar, integral with the stabilizer plate to rotate the tool.

Shower drain commonly used as a drain for a shower having a tile floor, the shower drain comprising a threaded flange which is rotated onto a threaded drain pipe, the shower drain further comprising a rim, the rim being mounted to the flange with a shower pan membrane captured between the flange and the rim, the rim having an upper edge and internal ribs;a blade for engagement with the ribs of the shower drain so that the drain can be rotated by torque applied to the blade;a stabilizer plate connected to the blade to seat the tool on the upper edge of the rim of the shower drain, the diameter of the stabilizer plate being sufficient that the stabilizer plate frictionally engages the upper edge of the rim to maintain the tool seated on the drain while the tool is being rotated and to prevent the tool from falling through the drain into the drain pipe; and means coupled to the stabilizer plate for imparting rotation to the blade.

The shower drain tool as defined in claim 1 wherein the means coupled to the stabilizer plate for imparting rotation to the blade comprises a pipe wrench extension connected to the stabilizer plate, the pipe wrench extension being configured so that a pipe wrench can grip the extension and be used to rotate the tool.

Many tools have been developed for use by the construction industry. Various general purpose tools are commonplace, such as a hammer, saw, screwdriver, wrench, and numerous other tools.

Power Bar with ps3 Question?

I have an extension cord plugged into another extension cord and that extension cord is plug into a power bar. Can I plug another power bar that has a circuit breaker in it. Will this be okay for a ps3 and computer plugs. Or should the ps3 be plug into a outlet on the wall. How many volts does a ps3 need?

Thanks

Plug the PS3 into a surge protector and plug the surge protector into a wall outlet. Extension cord to extension cord is never good for expensive electronics like the PS3.
