A combination toolchest and workbench has a base member with an upper surface, and front, back and side edges. An upright rear panel with lateral edges and a top edge, is affixed to the back edge of the base member. A pair of opposed upright side panels, each having a lower edge adjacent to one of the side edges of the base, an upper edge, a forward edge, and a rear edge, are each pivotably attached to one of the lateral edges of the rear panel. The inside surfaces of at least one of the rear and side panels have tool-holding device receptors. The combination toolchest and workbench has a top member and an openable front panel. The combination toolchest and workbench can thus present an array of tools in a securable enclosure.

The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the release is carried by the slider to project toward said arm. 3. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein the case side wall has a through opening, the release projecting toward said through opening to lock the slider to the case prior to actuation of the release by the actuator. 4. The apparatus of claim 3 including a pusher on the arm movable toward said opening, at the outer side of the side wall. 5. The apparatus of claim 3 including a second arm at the inner side of said side wall carrying the release to resiliently pivot toward and away from said opening. 6. The apparatus of claim 4 including a second arm at the inner side of said side wall carrying the release to resiliently pivot toward and away from said opening. 7. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein the slider has a pivotally supported front portion carrying the release, to pivot downwardly. 8. The apparatus of claim 5 wherein the slider has a pivotally supported front portion carrying the release to pivot downwardly, said pivotally supported portion blocked against pivoting prior to pivoting of the release away from said opening. 9. The apparatus of claim 8 wherein the release projects into said opening prior to pivoting of the release away from said opening. 10. The apparatus of claim 1 including an information disc carried by the slider. 11. The apparatus of claim 10 wherein said disc is a CD. 12. The apparatus of claim 1 including at least one additional release proximate a side wall of the case and actuable to release an additional slider, for forward movement, at least one additional arm at the outer side of said side wall, and supported to pivot in a direction toward and away from the additional release, and at least one additional actuator carried to pivot said additional arm to actuate said at least one additional release, whereby said at least one additional slider can move forwardly relative to the case front opening. 13. The apparatus of claim 12 wherein there are two of said additional arms and two of said additional actuators. 14. The apparatus of claim 12 wherein two arms are at one exterior side of the case, and third arm is at the opposite exterior side of the case. 15. The apparatus of claim 1 including a flange carried by the case and projecting to conceal said arm while exposing said actuator, viewed from the front of the case. 16. The apparatus of claim 13 including two flanges carried by the case, and projecting to conceal said arms, as viewed from the front of the case. 17. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the slider has a forward portion that drop-tilts downwardly in forward position of the slider, away from an information disc carried by the slider. 18. The apparatus of claim 17 wherein said release is carried by said slider forward portion. 19. The apparatus of claim 7 including an information disc carried by said slider, said disc overlapping said pivotally supported slider front portion, to allow grasping of the disc when said front portion tilts away from the disc. 20. The apparatus of claim 1 including a spring urging the slider in a direction toward said extended position. 21. For use with a case having a front opening and side walls, and a slider in the case, the slider movable forwardly toward and at least partly through said first opening, the combination comprising: a) a release proximate one side wall of the case and actuable to release the slider for forward movement, b) an arm operatively attached at or proximate a first end to the outer side of said one side wall relative to the case, and supported to pivot in a direction toward and away from the release and said side wall, c) and a button carried to pivot the arm to actuate the releas
