A support rack and method of manufacture thereof are provided for retaining a power hand tool or a battery pack on a wall surface. The support rack when configured for storing a power hand tool includes a mounting panel for connection to the wall surface, a support panel that extends from the mounting panel, and at least one projecting structure that extends upwardly from the support panel. The projecting structure is customized in shape and size to releasably engage in a close frictional fit with at least one corresponding interface element (aperture or slot) provided on the power hand tool. The support rack is integrally formed as a unitary piece from a plastic material and thus includes no metallic or conductive components configured to provide power or electrical charging to the power hand tool (or battery pack), thereby providing a reliable physical support for same.

The present invention is a circular saw holder. In an embodiment, the circular saw bracket is provided with a ledge protruding from the body of the bracket. The ledge is further provided with a lip. The configuration allows the upper blade guard of a circular saw to rest on the ledge, while the lip engages the inside surface of the blade guard, preventing the saw from falling off the bracket. In an embodiment, through holes in the body allow the bracket to be mounted to a surface using screws.

A cordless tool holding apparatus is disclosed. The cordless tool holding apparatus comprises a rack having a first shelf and a second shelf configured to couple with each other via side walls. The second shelf comprises a plurality of extended portions. The cordless tool holding apparatus further comprises at least one snap-fit assembly coupled to at least one surface of each extended portion of the plurality of extended portions. The at least one snap-fit assembly comprises a body, at least one ramp coupled to the body and integrated on at least one side wall of the at least one snap-fit assembly, and at least one rib coupled to the body and integrated on the at least one side wall of the at least one snap-fit assembly. Further, the at least one snap-fit assembly is configured to detachably couple at least one cordless tool.

A tool holder designed for battery operated power tools is attachable to a belt and has a quick release to allow access to the power tool. The tool holder grasps the power tool at the handle between the battery pack of the tool and the housing containing the operative part. The tool holder is made of a flat material such as metal or a high-density plastic and comprises a mechanical latch that secures the power tool within the holder until the user disengages the latch to allow removal of the tool.

A joint compound tool including a handle having a first end and a second end where a blade portion is attached to the first end and a mixing member is attached to the second end. The handle, the blade portion and the mixing member each have substantially the same thickness where the mixing member is used to mix joint compound and the blade is used to apply the joint compound to a surface.

An adapter tool. The adapter tool includes an elongated handle having a top end opposite a bottom end. A head is attached to and is substantially perpendicular with the handle. The head includes a first end opposite a second end. At least one of the first end and the second end may include a head mating end. A plurality of tool attachments is further provided. Each of the tool attachments includes a tool mating end releasably attachable to the head mating end. Each of the plurality of tool attachments may include a tool portion including a different type of tool. Therefore, different tool attachments may be connected to the head to form different tools.

A container, e.g., a carry-case, includes: a body having an internal cavity for storing contents, the body including at least one access side of the body having at least one opening sufficient in size to accommodate movement of the contents through the opening(s); and at least one lid configured to releasably close the at least one opening, respectively. The body further includes: first and second stacking sides in which are formed complementarily-shaped surface feature(s) and surface feature(s), respectively, configured to be releasably engageable with the corresponding surface feature(s) formed in second and first stacking sides, respectively, of other instances of the container. And each access side and corresponding lid are configured to permit access through the corresponding opening while one or more of the first and second stacking sides are disposed in states of releasable engagement, respectively.

A tool holder includes a ring, a magnet and a shell. The ring is formed with a first end, a second end and an internal flange at the first end. The magnet is located in the ring and restrained by the internal flange. The shell covers the ring and the magnet. The shell includes claws for catching the ring to keep magnet in the ring and the ring in the shell.

This specification discloses a holder device for retaining a pair of parallels against a pair of vise jaws, a method of using said holder device, and a holder device kit. The holder device comprises a compressible member and an incompressible member. The compressible member has a compressible member first end, a compressible member second end, and a compressible member length dimension. The incompressible member has an incompressible member first end, an incompressible member second end, and an incompressible member length dimension. The compressible member second end and the incompressible member first end are connected to form the holder device.

An integrated woodworking system connectable to an external source of electricity includes an enclosure, a management and control center, and plural tool holders. The management and control center is provided in the enclosure; is connectable to the source of electricity and a source of gas pressure; can control the consumption of input electricity, the flow rate of input gas, and a pneumatic tool such as a dust collector; and has at least one electricity output cable and at least one gas output hose. The tool holders are provided in the enclosure and are each connected to the electricity output cable or the gas output hose. The system incorporates the woodworking tools one needs into the enclosure and can be sold as a whole to save the trouble of purchasing and installing the tools individually. By managing power consumption in general, the system prevents overloading.
