ABSTRACT:
A pair of levers are provided including corresponding first base ends and second jaw ends. A pivot fastener pivotally connects the base ends of the levers together for relative swinging of the levers between first open positions with the jaw ends displaced away from each other and second closed positions with the jaw ends displaced toward each other into at least closely adjacent positions. Spring structure is operatively connected between the levers yieldingly biasing the latter toward the second positions thereof and releasable latch structure is provided and is operative to releasably latch the levers in the first positions. An elongated rigid support member is also provided and includes a flattened end and a pointed tip end. A pivot fastener pivotally supports the flattened end of the support member relative to the levers for independent swinging of the support member relative to both of the levers about the axis of relative pivoting of the levers and with the axis extending substantially at right angles relative to the flattened end of the support member. The painted tip end of the support member includes first structure for impaling and thus support from the ground and second structure for suspension of the support member from a suitable support structure.
