Abstract: A pivoting handle attachment for power tools is installed between a power tool and its side handle to provide a means for the side handle to fold into the body of the power tool for storage and ergonomics. Two cylindrical pivot halves have mating serrated faces that are releasably pressed against each other with a bolt and a nut. A threaded stud protruding from the first cylindrical pivot half screws into the existing handle hole in the power tool body, and the side handle screws into the second cylindrical pivot half. To adjust the angle of the handle, the nut is loosened, the handle is rotated to the desired position, and the nut is tightened again.
