ABSTRACT:
A tool for supporting material, such as an automobile windshield, from the body of a worker has a plate shaped to fit on the shoulder of the worker, a shank fixed to the plate, and a suction cup receivable on the shank and fixable to the glass. The plate is padded for comfort of the worker. The shank is replaceable so the length of the shank can be selected to suit the worker and the task. The plate is formed of a thermoplastic, and can be vacuum formed with a boss. A coupling, then, fits over the boss and provides a socket to receive the shank. If required, a reinforcing plug can be received within the boss.
