Abstract
The wrench holder has a plurality of pairs of elements separated by a space substantially equal to the thickness of a wrench. One element in each pair is fixed and the other is hingedly mounted for movement toward and away from the first element. Two bosses are respectively carried by the two elements and are directed laterally toward each other. A wrench is inserted into a space, forcing the second element away from the first until the bosses are aligned with a hole in wrench, whereupon the two bosses seat within the wrench hole.
