A distribution of slip resistant under-surfacing on its frame secures this device on any flat, stable surface. Oblong bars connect perpendicularly to a corner. T-shaped grooves run the topside longitudinal axis of joined bars. T-nuts inside T-shaped grooves connect with threaded studs of hand wheels holding an oblong block in place on each bar. Each of these blocks connects with a mostly rectangular plate. An edge of each plate being opposed and parallel to the other plate's; opposed edges being covered with slip resistant material. Movement of oblong blocks towards corner moves surfaced plate edges into contact with objects positioned between plates. Plates' edging conforms to the object's contours thereby holding the object. A demountable column seats in frame's corner socket. This column has modular recesses which receive correspondingly positioned studs from a demountable bracket which functions as an adjustable shelf for other attachments.

I claim: 1. A holding device comprising: a corner bracket having first, second, and third openings; a first elongate base member having a proximal end secured within said first bracket opening and a distal end opposite the proximal end; a second elongate base member having a proximal end secured within said second bracket opening and a distal end opposite the proximal end, said first and second elongate base members extending perpendicular to one another; each of said first and second elongate base members having an upper surface and a lower surface opposite the upper surface, said lower surface adapted to engage a support surface; a first sliding member slidingly engaging the upper surface of said first base member and slidable along its length; a second sliding member slidingly engaging the upper surface of said second base member and slidable along its length; a first fastener engaging said first sliding member and said first base member, said first fastener manually operable to selectively secure said first sliding member and said first base member in fixed relative position and alternately to release said first sliding member and said first base member to permit sliding movement of said first sliding member relative to said first base member; a second fastener engaging said second sliding member and said second base member, said second fastener manually operable to selectively secure said second sliding member and said second base member in fixed relative position and alternately to release said second sliding member and said second base member to permit sliding movement of said second sliding member relative to said second base member; each of said first and second base members having a slip-resistant material disposed on the lower surface thereof; a first arm attached to the first sliding member and elevated above the support surface, said first arm having a first peripheral edge surface which is parallel to an aligned facing surface of said first base member and a second, gripping peripheral edge surface having a slip-resistant material thereon; and a second arm attached to the second sliding member, said second arm elevated above the support surface and extending parallel to the first arm, said second arm having a first peripheral edge surface which is parallel to an aligned facing surface of said second base member and a second, gripping peripheral edge surface having a slip-resistant material thereon, said second arm second gripping surface in parallel and facing relation to said first arm gripping surface, wherein sliding movement of one or both of said first and second sliding members causes parallel relative movement between said first and second arms. 2. The holding device of claim 1, further comprising: a vertically extending column having a first end and a second end opposite the first end, said first end received within said third opening of said corner bracket; an inclined rigid panel attached to said column second end; and a fastener for releasably securing said column to said corner bracket. 3. The holding device of claim 2, further comprising: a plurality of axially-spaced apart modular recesses formed on a first side of said column; a demountable bracket for attaching laterally to said column at a plurality of axial positions thereon, said demountable bracket having a notch formed in a first side thereof adapted to partially receive said column; and a fastener for securing the demountable bracket to said column at a desired axial position via said plurality of axially-spaced apart modular recesses formed on said column first side, said fastener including at least one protrusion extending from said notch formed on said demountable bracket for engaging a selected one of said axially-spaced apart modular recesses. 4. The holding device of claim 3, further comprising: said demountable bracket having a plurality of modular recesses formed thereon; said demountable bracket further including a demountable block having a plurality of studs at an end thereof for attachment at a desired position thereon via said plurality of modular recesses on said demountable bracket; and said demountable block having a plurality of modular recesses on a plurality of sides of said demountable block. 5. The holding device of claim 4, further comprising: said demountable bracket further including a nonmovable shelf element extending from a second side of the demountable bracket opposite the first side; said demountable block attachable to the demountable bracket to define a movable shelf element; and a plurality of modular recesses spaced along on said second side of said demountable bracket, wherein attachment of said studs of said demountable block to different ones of said plurality of modular recesses on said demountable bracket second side corresponds to varying distances between said movable and nonmovable shelf elements. 6. The holding device of claim 3, further comprising: said demountable bracket having a plurality of modular recesses formed thereon; one or more demountable panel members attached to said demountable bracket; each of said one or more demountable panel members including a truncated column having an inclined panel at a first end thereof, and a plurality of studs at a second end of the truncated column opposite the first end; and said plurality of studs mating with corresponding ones of said plurality of modular recesses formed on said demountable bracket such that each of said one or more demountable inclined panels are coplanar with said rigid inclined panel. 7. The holding device of claim 3, further comprising: said demountable bracket having a plurality of modular recesses formed thereon; a demountable holder for sheet and bulk materials, said demountable holder including a rigid transparent plate seated in a base, said base having a plurality of studs extending from a surface of said base opposite the transparent plate, said studs mating with said modular recesses formed on said demountable bracket, said rigid transparent plate having a first, vertically extending peripheral edge, and a second, inclined peripheral edge opposite said vertical peripheral edge; and said inclined peripheral edge having an incline parallel to said inclined panel when the base is mounted on said demountable bracket and said inclined side of said transparent plate is facing toward said inclined surface of said demountable panel. 8. The holding device of claim 3, further comprising: said demountable bracket having a plurality of modular recesses formed thereon; a dispensing attachment having a substrate attachable to said demountable bracket at various positions via said plurality of modular recesses on the demountable bracket, said substrate having a central opening therethrough; and said dispensing attachment further including a layer of compressible foam rubber on said substrate and having intersecting slits defining an opening in said foam layer aligned with said opening in said substrate, the aligned openings allowing passage of a dispensing tool therethrough and said compressible foam rubber resiliently deformable to exert a holding pressure against the dispensing tool.
