Abstract

An assembly for holding a socket driver, an extension, or a spinner includes an L-shaped bracket member which has means thereon for engaging either the head or the shank portion of the tool. The assembly also includes a slide locking member that is engaged with a support wall of the bracket, to trap another portion of the tool (the shank or a section of the handle) and thereby retain the tool in the assembly. The package is adapted for point of sale display to present the article to the customer in an attractive manner, while protecting it against physical damage and pilferage; the slide locking member is capable of removal without damage to the assembly, thereby permitting reuse for storage of the tool part by the purchaser.
