The purpose of this invention is to provided for shipping, storing and using various tools in a single unit that is convenient for both the shipper and the user. A case is provided with rigid outside walls and inside walls dividing the case into many different compartments. One compartment is made specifically to hold a power tool such as a drill. Other compartments are specifically shaped to hold a flashlight, extra batteries and battery charger. The specifically designed compartments for holding the power tool, flashlight, extra batteries and battery charger are made of such a size that they will fit many different sizes and shapes of the respective tool. The compartment for holding the drill is shaped to also hold a different power tool at the same time it is holding one power tool, such as a drill and a staple gun, in a nested relationship. The compartments are organized such that the ones for holding fasteners or tools often used are at the front and the compartment for holding the less frequently used items, such as the flashlight and spare battery, are at the rear of the case.
