Abstract
A socket tool holder 100 for holding and supporting a socket tool 102 in upright orientation includes a base section 104 and a stem 106 that extends upwardly from the base section and through the socket tool 102 to terminate above top of the socket tool. An indicia 108 is located at the top of the stem to indicate some aspect of the socket tool 102 being held, in this case that the size of the socket tool is 15 mm and 16 mm, respectively. A plurality of reduced size sections or locations 140 are spaced apart along the length or height of the stem 106. The reduced size sections serve as locations where the stem 106 can be conveniently severed to thereby adjust the length of the stem to the length or depth of the socket tool 102.
Claims20
A socket tool holder, comprising a base and an elongate stem having a proximal free end slidably engageable within an opening in the base to extend upwardly from the base, the stem of a width of a size to pass through a socket tool being held, the stem configured with spaced apart reduced size width sections, said spaced apart reduced size width sections extending from the proximal free end of the stem and along the height of the stem to facilitate snapping the proximal end of the stem at a desired reduced size width location relative to the proximal free end of the stem to adjust the stem to a desired length, the resulting proximal free end of the stem engageable with the base.
