Abstract
A case for storing drivable components includes first and second half shells, a frame member included in the first or second half shell, a first rail having a first length and including a first plurality of receptacles configured to receive a first set of drivable components, and a second rail having a second length shorter than the first length and including a second plurality of receptacles configured to receive a second set of drivable components. The frame member includes rail holding slots. Both the first and second rail are removable from the rail holding slots and rotatable therein between a storage position and an in-use position. When in the storage position, the first rail is retained at a first bit storage layer within the case and the second rail is retained at a second bit storage layer.
