An improved pick for playing stringed musical instruments such as guitars, banjos and the like comprising a generally flat pick body sized and configured to be grasped between the thumb and forefinger of a player and including a first end, a second end and surrounding sidewalls that define a tear drop shape, and further including picking means comprising an enlarged, substantially bullet nose shaped portion at the first pick body end for plucking the strings of the musical instrument. The improved pick of this invention further comprises gripping means disposed along the pick body's upper and lower surfaces which preferably comprise a plurality of small, cone shaped members arranged in rows. In a most preferred embodiment, the pick body of the invention will have a wedge or aerodynamic shape.

Pick for musical instruments with improved grip

A vehicle service ramp comprising a unitary ramp having an external structure including a rear wall, a pair of side walls and a front. The front includes a surface sloping upward to a top flat plane. The ramp has an internal structure forming a honeycomb pattern of supporting walls extending between the rear wall, side walls and front. The ramp is formed from a foamed polymer having a tensile strength sufficient to support its rated load bearing capacity.

Vehicle service ramp

A lightweight, high strength, portable vehicle service ramp capable of being used by aerodynamic vehicles and heavy trucks. The ramp is solid on all sides with integrated handles on the sides and rear. The base and rear of the structure are covered with a corrosive-and-wear resistant material. The incline and top plane area of the ramp are covered with non-skid material. A wheel stop is provided in a configuration to reduce kickback. The internal construction is a system of cross members running longitudinally and transversely to provide weight bearing capability. Ramp design provides for movement, storage and transporting efficiency.
