Truss-supported tool transport apparatus

1. A truss-supported tool transport comprising:

a tool box;

two cleats, each cleat extending downward from a bottom of the tool box; and

an adapter, the adapter comprising:

an underside with rounded edges, and

a top with two recesses into which the two cleats of the tool box fit to join the tool box with the adapter;

whereby the bottom with rounded edges of the adapter reduces the resistance of the tool box when being dragged across a rough surface; and

whereby when the tool box is used in an attic, each cleat extends down into a space that exists between two trusses.

2. The truss-supported tool transport of claim 1 , further comprising:

a storage compartment, the storage compartment forming a cavity within the tool box; and

a lid that covers the storage compartment, the lid flush with a top surface of the tool box when closed.

3. The truss-supported tool transport of claim 1 , further comprising:

at least one magnet located on the tool box;

whereby the at least one magnet secures a metal tool during use.

4. The truss-supported tool transport of claim 1 , further comprising:

at least one adjustable strap located on the tool box;

whereby the at least one adjustable straps secure tools to the tool box.

5. A tool transport for use atop attic trusses, the tool transport comprising:

a tool box having a length and a width;

two cleats, the two cleats:

formed by downward extensions on a bottom of the tool box, and

oriented perpendicular to the length of the tool box;

an adapter having:

an underside with rounded edges, and

a top with two penetrations;

whereby the two penetrations mate with the two cleats thereby joining the tool box with the adapter for use on rough surfaces; and

whereby when the tool box is placed lengthwise across the attic trusses, the two cleats straddle the attic trusses, thereby preventing lateral movement.

6. The tool transport for use atop attic trusses of claim 5 , further comprising:

a cavity within the tool box; and

a lid, the lid being flush with a top surface of the tool box when closed.

7. The tool transport for use atop attic trusses of claim 5 , further comprising:

a magnet located on the tool box to hold metal tools in place during use.

8. The tool transport for use atop attic trusses of claim 5 , further comprising:

an adjustable strap located on the tool box to secure tools in place during use.

9. A truss-supported tool transport for use in an attic or a crawl space, the truss-supported tool transport comprising:

a tool box, the tool box having two or more protrusions extending down from a bottom of the tool box;

an adapter, the adapter having:

an underside with rounded edges, and

a top including two or more penetrations;

whereby the two or more protrusions are configured to secure the tool box when resting atop trusses in an attic; and

whereby each of the two or more protrusions mates with one of the two or more penetrations converting the truss-supported tool transport for use in a crawl space.

10. The truss-supported tool transport of claim 9 , further comprising a storage compartment, the storage compartment comprising:

a cavity in the tool box; and

a lid;

wherein the lid is flush with a top surface of the tool box when closed.

11. The truss-supported tool transport of claim 9 , further comprising:

a plurality of magnets located on the tool box;

whereby a metal tool may be secured to one of the plurality of magnets decreasing the risk of the metal tool falling.

12. The truss-supported tool transport of claim 9 , further comprising:

a plurality of tool straps located on the tool box;

whereby a tool may be secured to the tool box by one of the plurality of straps.
