ABSTRACT:
A glove box for cutting a hole in a ceiling collects dust and debris during the cutting operation. The glove box is a transparent container having a central aperture in the bottom. The aperture includes an inwardly extending ring having an outwardly extending flange for attaching a glove. A seal at the top of the container engages the ceiling, compressing to accommodate irregularities or minor slope in the ceiling. The glove box may be held by the user during use, or may be supported on top of a telescoping pole. A fork engages the telescoping pole at its lower end, and opposite sides of the cylinder on its upper end. A spring between the fork and telescoping pole biases the container towards the ceiling. The container may include openings for a vacuum hose or an electrical cord for a cutting tool.
