Abstract
A tool bit storage case includes a front cover preferably hingedly interconnected with a back cover, with the covers being selectively separable and movable toward and away from each other between open and closed positions and together defining a generally hollow storage chamber therebetween. A removable pivotable tools bit holder is releasably retained within the hollow storage chamber on one of the covers and is adapted for holding one or more tool bits, with the tool bit holder being pivotal within the storage chamber in order to allow it to be selectively pivoted toward and away from the cover upon which it is retained when the covers are in the open position. The covers are also releasably snapped together, into and out of their preferred hinged interconnection, thus greatly contributing to the interchangeability of components to suit a wide variety of storage applications.
