Abstract: A system for use with small objects such as nails, screws and the like comprises a box dimensioned to hold a plurality of curved, lidded containers that fit easily into a carpenter's pouch or, alternatively, have a clip for use directly on a work belt. The top and the bottom of the box are latched and carried by a handle with two axes of rotation, one for unlatching and one for moving to a noninterfering position when the box is mounted to a wall to serve as a temporary shelf. The handle latches securely, both by mating with a portion of the bottom of the box and by sleeves that slide over a portion of the handle. Each container may also have an integral or removable divider for holding complementary small objects in the left and right portions of the container.
