Abstract
An axially moveable portable tool, such as a drill, and a guide for the tool are disclosed. The tool is provided with a gripping means and an internal guideway parallel to the axis of tool movement on the grip side of the tool. The guide has a base with a post and a handle attached to and extending from the base. The post and handle are positioned so that a projection of the line of force applied during use to the tool grip and to the handle, both fall substantially within the base footprint. The portable tool can be attached to the post to assume a specific angle with the base and can be easily removed from it for independent use.
