Abstract:

Disclosed is a tool holder that enables its user to maintain a target in his line of sight as he retrieves and exchanges tools. The tool holder can be worn, for example, by a make-up artist to enable him to keep a model in his line of sight as he exchanges make-up brushes and other tools that are required to apply cosmetics. In one aspect, the tool holder is configured to conform to the shape of the user's body, causing it to provide a tight fit with the user's forearm. The outer surface of the tool holder includes slots and/or pockets that vary in size, for inserting and retaining brush handles and other tools in a wide variety of sizes, until they are removed by the user. Slots and/or pockets can be provided in various arrangements, to increase storage capacity or provide increased accessibility.
