Router bit rack, system and method thereof
A rack for supporting items defines a channel or trough to receive support bases or blocks therein. Each support base carries at least one item. One item may be a router bit. The rack and support base(s) may collectively define a router bit storage and display system that can be mounted to a support surface, such as a wall or a router table. The system enables a woodworker to safely store and easily access router bits for use in their router device when needed. The router bits are maintained spaced apart from each other when supported by the rack so as to not damage each other. The system can be modular or modularly expanded to grow with the woodworker such that when the woodworker acquires more router bits, the system can add more racks and support bases to ensure there is adequate room for the woodworker's additional router bits.

Tool retaining systems, methods and apparatus
Systems, methods, and apparatus for securing tools for use, storage, and transport. One illustrative system may include a tool securing assembly with a tool retaining clip that can be detachably mounted to a base assembly. The tool retaining clip may be formed from a resilient material and have a tool insertion opening smaller than a diameter of a portion of a tool to be secured therein that leads to a larger tool retaining space. When a tool is inserted, the tool insertion opening flexes to provide positive physical feedback that the tool is secured. The retaining clip may require the tool to be rotated as it is inserted to provide additional physical feedback. The base assembly may have a front mounting portion and rear securing portion separated by a retaining recess. The tool retaining clip may also be secured on a storage rack for storage or transport.

Elevated tool box assembly
An elevated tool box assembly includes a tool box that has a pair of receivers that is each integrated into the tool box. Each of the receivers is oriented to extend along a horizontal axis to insertably receive a respective one of a plurality of horizontal members of a guard rail on an elevated platform. In this way the tool box can be suspended on the guard rail. The tool box has a crown and the crown has a plurality of slots integrated into the crown for receiving a hand tool for storage. A door is hingedly integrated into the crown for opening and closing the tool box. A plurality of suspensions is each coupled to the crown and a plurality of lanyards is each removably attachable to a respective one of the suspensions. Additionally, each of the lanyards is attachable to a respective one of the hand tools.
Tool hanger
A tool hanger including: a base; seat portions, disposed on the base for connection of a tool, including a projection for engagement within a positioning hole of the tool; an anti-theft member, including limitation portions and at least one connection portion which is connected between the limitation portions by a connecting section and inserted in through holes and insertion holes of the seat portions, the limitation portions being relatively rotatable; when the limitation portions are located in a release position, the projection is radially movable and the tool is axially movable; when the limitation portions are located in a locking position, the limitation portions block the projection from radially moving and the tool is axially non-movable; and the connection portion is broken and separated from the at least one connection portion as the limitation portions are rotated.

Wall hanging system
A tool hanging system. The tool hanging system includes a power tool having a mount receiving portion. A mounting attachment is engaged with the mount receiving portion. The mounting attachment includes a first portion adjacent to the power tool and an overhang portion spaced apart from and opposite the first portion. A groove is located between the first portion and the overhang portion. The mounting attachment also includes a peg board projection, the peg board projection projecting away from the power tool and past the overhang portion. The peg board projection engages with a pegboard.
