ABSTRACT:
The present invention has a top plate with a receptacle and handle on its top surface, a bottom plate with cut-outs for holding tools, a fastener assembly for screwing the top plate to the bottom plate and a demountable leg assembly. The receptacle is designed to closely hold a gallon can. An insert enables the receptacle to hold smaller cans. When used with the leg assembly attached to the top plate, the top plate is screwed tightly against the bottom plate. The invention is designed so that the top plate does not interfere with the cut-outs. Preferably the legs telescope so that the invention can be placed on uneven surfaces and the height of the receptacle can be varied. When used without the leg assembly, the top plate is screwed to the bottom plate around any convenient horizontal support member. The screws force the top and bottom plate to clamp securely to the member. The member can be the rung of a ladder or the step of a step ladder. While designed primarily for the use of painters, this invention can be used by other tradesmen who need to carry and support a can of material and some tools at a convenient working height above the floor or ground.
