Abstract

A wrench storage arrangement for a router wherein the router housing is formed with a cavity and apertures communicating with the cavity are provided on diametrically opposed sides of the cavity. For storage purposes, the wrench handle is caused to extend through the apertures. Within the cavity are a pair of beams which extend toward each other, each of the beams having a longitudinal rib. The wrench handle is formed with notches on the opposed side surfaces, which notches engage the ribs to provide a retention detent.
