ABSTRACT:
An organizer particularly for a set of wrench sockets has a series of socket receivers arranged in ascending/descending size order. Each receiver is of tubular form which is slit longitudinally to make it expandable and contractable. A resilient band encircles the receiver so that when a socket of suitable size is inserted therein, the resilient band provides a contracting force retaining the socket in the receiver. Also, the receivers have stops to limit the amount of insertion of a socket and the respective stops are arranged at different heights related to the height of the respective sockets so that each socket projects from its respective receiver to the same level above the top of the organizer. In one form of the invention, the stops are provided with respective ejector mechanisms for facilitating removal of the sockets.
