  • Publication number: 20230150110
    Abstract: A storage device (10) including a circumferential wall (24) that extends along a longitudinal axis (A-A) from an open first end (24P) to a second end (24D) and circumscribes an internal chamber (40) configured to receive a respective axial portion (202) of a tool (200). The storage device further includes a tool tray (12) that radially extends outward from an axial center of the internal chamber to the circumferential wall. The tool tray includes a top surface (22) configured to support a respective head portion (204) of each tool (200) and one or more troughs (26) formed through the top surface and a bottom surface of the tool tray. Each trough defines a respective width sufficient to prevent passage of the respective head portion through the trough and permit passage of the respective axial portion through the trough when the respective head portion is supported by the top surface.
