A portable hand tool, such as a drill, having an outer casing and a chuck adapted to receive a sander attachment is supported to facilitate handling of the tool. An apparatus for supporting the tool includes a base member having an opening for receiving the sander attachment, a guide member spanning the base opening also including an opening for receiving the chuck, a clamping member for engaging and supporting the rotary tool on the base member so that the sander attachment is received in the opening in the base member, and springs between the clamping member and the base member. The springs bias the clamping member with respect to the base member so that the sander attachment is forced against a work surface through the opening in the base member.
