• a bottom wall extending outwardly from a second end of the back plate in the first direction;
• a handle extending outwardly from the exterior surface of the top wall in a second direction, the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction;
• at least two spaced-apart mounting points each extending outwardly from the front surface of the back plate in the first direction, each mounting point being positioned between the top and bottom walls, each mounting point being configured to be inserted into a receptacle of at least one of the two or more tools to attach the two or more tools to the handheld device;
• and
• a first gusset located between the front surface of the back plate and the interior surface of the top wall, the first gusset including a curved wall configured to strengthen the handheld device,
• wherein the first gusset includes a first recess therein, the first recess is configured to allow the at least one of the two or more tools to be positioned closer to the top wall when the at least one tool of the two or more tools is attached to a top one of the mounting points.

• and
• a handheld device configured to transport, organize, or store each of the three tools simultaneously, the handheld device comprising:
• a back plate having a planar rear surface and an opposing front surface;
• a top wall extending outwardly from a first end of the back plate in a first direction, the top wall having an interior surface and an opposing exterior surface;
• a bottom wall extending outwardly from a second end of the back plate in the first direction;
• a handle extending outwardly from the exterior surface of the top wall in a second direction, the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction;
• and
• three spaced-apart mounting points each extending outwardly from the front surface of the back plate in the first direction, each mounting point being positioned between the top and bottom walls, each mounting point being configured to be inserted into a receptacle of at least one of the three tools to attach the three tools to the handheld device,
• wherein each drill chuck is removably attachable to one of the mounting points without first requiring removal of a portion of the handheld device.
