A tool transport assembly comprising, in combination:
- a horizontally oriented base having a planar rectangular configuration with a top face, a bottom face and a periphery formed therebetween defined by a pair of parallel elongated edges and a pair of parallel short edges formed therebetween, the bottom face further including a swivel wheel mounted to each of the corners thereof for transporting purposes, wherein a rope is connected to the bottom face of the base adjacent to one of the short edges and terminating in a loop for totting purposes;
- a first side portion including a peripheral lip coupled thereto and extending upwardly therefrom a first predetermined height and an intermediate lip integrally coupled to the top face of the base and extending upwardly therefrom the first predetermined height, the intermediate lip being situated in parallel relationship with and adjacent to a portion of the peripheral lip mounted along one of the elongated edges of the base, wherein the lips define a first shallow compartment with an open top and a first width and a second shallow compartment with an open top and a second width less than 1/4 the first width;
- a second side portion having a pair of square side walls each having a square horizontal cross section and situated in side-by-side relationship between the elongated edges and contiguous with one of the short edges of the base, the square side walls each defining an open top and a separate compartment, the square side walls including a short side wall and a tall side wall with a height at least twice that of the short side wall and at least four times the first predetermined height, wherein a length of the second side portion is less than 1/4 that of the first side portion;
- and
- a square lid having a first side edge hingably coupled to an upper peripheral edge of the open top of the tall side wall for pivoting between an opened and a closed orientation, the square lid having a cylindrical recess formed therein for containing a beverage or the like therein.
