Abstract
Abstract The present invention relates to a multi-purpose tool holder for holding various tools on an extension handle. The holder includes a flat support plate on the end of the extension handle. The support plate has a cable arrangement such that two cable loops are formed on top of it. The tool to be held is placed through the cable loops, and a wing nut is tightened on a threaded guide bar to tighten the cable securely around the tool. The tool holder can be used for many purposes such as holding paint scrapers, paint brushes, scrub brushes, weegies, acid brushes, paint roller frames, and other related tools.
