T-JAKŪ - All purpose support tools
The T-JAKŪ is a fine example of a Green tool. Its purpose is to eliminate the waste caused by using 2x4s and ledger boards to support cabinets, drywall and other objects. With over fifty thousand tools in use today, the number of trees saved by using the T-JAKŪ is substantial enough for it to be considered an environmentally friendly tool.
Patterson Avenue Tool Co.Inc. was founded 20 years ago by three boyhood friends, who grew up on the same street in Chicago, Illinois. Our mission was to create and market new innovative tools for use in the home improvement and construction industry.
We were looking for a way to raise the cabinet close to the desired position, still carry the weight, yet allow for fine tuning. The unique feature of T-JAKŪ is the quick/tilt adjustment knob, which allows for quick positioning, while carrying the weight, and then fine tuning by turning the knob.
All T-JAKŪ tools are powder-coated with bright orange paint, and the individual pipe sections are very nicely finished. There are no sharp burrs, and the pieces assemble and disassemble quickly, forming an almost unlimited array of different application possibilities.
Even after 20 years manufacturing the T-JAKŪ, we still enjoy hearing about the wide range of job applications that the T-JAKŪ is used for. We have sold to NASA, USAF, Daimler Chrysler, Country Coach, schools, hospitals, and boat builders.
The T-JAKŪ becomes your hard working helper for many difficult jobs. Do-it-yourselfers and professional remodelers rave about this handy tool.
