A rack for tool bits has many apertures in its horizontal top panel for receiving the drill bits, turning tools, and the like. Each aperture may be provided with a soft plastic bushing to prevent damage to the tool edge. A back vertical panel depending from the top panel is provided with rack supporting mechanisms for removably supporting the rack on the vertical wall of a stationary machine tool. The supporting means may include magnetic elements or preferably keyhole shaped apertures in the back panel that cooperate with shouldered machine screws affixed to the vertical wall of the machine tool. A cork surface on a front vertical panel of the rack may be provided for tacking on memos.
