  • Patent number: 3975068
    Abstract: An improved column mounted tool holder for mounting on typical basement or factory support columns of varying sizes. The tool holder includes a pair of complementay structural members that are bolted to each other about a support column to define a work surface on all sides of the column, and each structural member mounts an associated clamp member with a V-shaped clamping surface for adjusting movement to allow the clamping of different size columns. The structural members preferably are of elongated configurations with U-shaped cross sections that open sideways toward each other so as to provide upper and lower walls between which the clamp members are slidably mounted. This configuration of the structural members allows drawers to be received by the ends of the structural members to hold small parts.
