" No mess" wax scraper

Abstract

A scraper for removing wax or similar material from bases of skis, snowboards, surfboards, or similar recreational equipment. The blade for scraping is positioned inside the hollow unit and scrapes up the wax through a slot in the scraper that runs parallel to the blade. The wax is then contained inside the device until emptied.

1 . A scraper for removing wax or other materials that consist of an elongated hollow member, in order to contain the wax or debris, that has a top and bottom case with at least one blade positioned generally parallel to a gap in the bottom case, for removing the wax or said materials and acts as a device for containing wax to eliminate the mess associated with removing said material from the equipment. 
   
   
       2 . The device as in  claim 1  wherein the blade is beveled on at least one edge and has a generally rectangular shape with at least one edge to scrape with and can typically be removed or reversed to use another edge and the blade can be attached and removed by a mechanical lever arm but may also be attached by simple mechanical devices such as clipping mechanisms, sliding mechanisms, snapping mechanisms, screws, or can be in a fixed position. 
   
   
       3 . The device as in  claim 1  wherein it is typically made of plastic, but can be composed of metal or other material that can still achieve its function and proper use. 
   
   
       4 . The device as in  claim 1 , wherein the top and bottom case contains support ribs to help support the blade. 
   
   
       5 . The device as in  claim 1 , wherein the top and bottom cases are held together by a hinge and clips, but can be held together by other various devices for example: screws, clipping mechanisms, sliding mechanisms, snapping mechanisms, or a fixed unit, or can also be other various mechanical devices that will still achieve the units function. 
   
   
       6 . The device as in  claim 1 , wherein the said member has a hollow cavity adjacent to the blade so the wax and said material can be stored and or contained.
