A tool for positioning and holding pipe to be laid in a ditch at a desired level while the ditch is filled partially with rock, gravel, etc. The tool comprises a rod located in a tubular member and having a pointed end extending out of the tubular member. The tubular member and rod are movable axially relative to each other. A locking member is provided for securing the rod and the tubular member at a desired position relative to each other. A pipe supporting means is carried by the tool and is fixed in place relative to the tubular member. In addition, a pipe locking means is supported for movement between a closed position and an open position. In the closed position, the pipe locking means forms an enclosed or partially enclosed configuration with the pipe supporting means for holding the pipe in a position such that its axis is generally transverse with the axis of the tubular member or that of the rod.
