Concept, Design and Pitching a Product: The Drywall Axe
Adam Pauze is from Aurora, ON and he is the inventor of the Drywall Axe, a multi function tool that makes cutting drywall and other materials safer and easier. Two and a half years ago he was working on a drywall job when he accidently took a slice out of his arm cutting a piece of drywall. Later that same evening he came up with the concept for the drywall axe. Not knowing how to bring his concept to reality he turned to the internet. Being new to the invention process he chose a company that promised him success but after taking his money...

Two years ago, after taking a chunk out of his arm while trying to cut drywall, Adam Pauze came up with the plans for an all-in-one tool that includes a utility knife, measuring tape and pencil. “Anyone who has cut drywall before knows that you can easily cut a four-foot piece with a square (tool), but an eight-foot is much more difficult, holding a knife in one hand and a measuring tape in the other,” the 20-year veteran of the trade said. “I have never invented anything before, but I thought this was a winner right...

Air velocity is one of the main determinants of human thermal comfort. The most common ceiling diffusers do not allow for personalization of airflow for nearby occupants. Drafts are the most annoying climatic factor at many workplaces and are assumed to reduce satisfaction with work, to impair performance and perhaps even health. The AIRVISOR air deflector is a new, easy to install or remove, system which allows local control over the airflow for individual building occupants. AIRVISOR can help achieve the desired end-product of HVAC systems:...
