A screwdriver holder or carrier includes two series of parallel troughs arrayed sequentially and in alternating rows with a handle support wall separating the troughs. The blades fit through a double molded wall construction with a foam insert held therein. The foam insert, in at least in part, frictionally engages the screwdriver blades to hold them in the carrier. The assembly further includes a blade guard at one end and a handle at its opposite end.

Screwdriver holder

A carrier for a work box or tub includes a support ring made from opposed connected braces with telescopic handle attached at one end and wheels attached at the opposite end of the support ring.

Tool box carrier

Step tool box

A tool box includes a bin section for receipt of tools, trays and removable containers or compartments. A hinged lid fits onto the bin portion of the tool box and is designed to retain the various containers and trays in position when closed. The area of the lid is enclosed within the profile of the base of the bin to facilitate sitting and standing thereon and to increase stability of the assembly.

Portable container for sockets

A container for sockets is fabricated from molded plastic components including opposed sections or segments forming a case with a circular through passage that accepts or retains a socket storage wheel. A rotatable cover fits over the socket storage wheel immediate a molded handle and a molded storage pocket. The cover interacts with a hinged lid associated with an auxiliary storage pocket. Sockets may be stored on pegs positioned on the storage wheels and ratchets, extensions and other tool items may be retained within the auxiliary storage pocket.

A portable storage assembly includes a bottom tub container, a series of at least two trays which nest one within the other and which collectively nest in the tub container and a cover. The assembly is retained in assembled condition by latches along the sides of the container that cooperate with the cover and the trays. The latches are pivotally supported on the tub container. The top of the cover includes a handle which bridges a recess in the top surface. A workpiece retaining groove is defined in the cover and the handle. The cover further includes storage retaining elements molded on the underside of the cover. The nesting trays include a handle in the lower tray which projects through an opening in the upper tray and nests in an aligned handle associated with the upper tray. The handles of the separate trays nest one within the other so that the trays may be simultaneously transported.
