Abstract
An alignment tool for connection to a work component. The alignment tool includes a body, a retention member that extends upward from the body, a clamp assembly spaced from the retention member and being connected to the body, a first reference surface that extends upward from the body and is located between the retention member and where the clamp assembly is connected to the body. The clamp assembly has a fastener that extends toward the retention member and past the first reference surface of the body, wherein the clamp assembly is movable t to draw a distal end of the fastener in a direction toward where the clamp assembly is connected to the body and the fastener is biased to move the distal end of the fastener toward the first reference surface.

An alignment tool for connection to a work component, comprising:
- a generally planar body;
- a retention member that extends upward from the body;
- a clamp assembly spaced from the retention member and being connected to the body;
- a first reference surface that extends upward from the body and is located between the retention member and where the clamp assembly is connected to the body;
- the clamp assembly having a fastener that extends toward the retention member and past the first reference surface;
- and
- wherein the clamp assembly is movable to draw a distal end of the fastener in a direction toward where the clamp assembly is connected to the body, and the fastener is biased to move the distal end of the fastener toward the first reference surface.
An alignment tool for connection to a work component and for use in aligning the work component with a work piece, the alignment tool comprising:
- a body having a first reference surface that extends upward and in a first direction;
- a retention member that extends upward and is spaced from the first reference surface in a second direction;
- a clamp assembly connected to the body and having a fastener that extends in the second direction past the first reference surface;
- and
- wherein the fastener has a distal end and the clamp assembly is movable to draw the distal end toward the first reference surface.
