a motor housed in the motor housing section;

an output member selectively driven by the motor;

a user actuatable trigger for activating the motor; and

an attachment unit removably coupled to the power tool;

wherein the handle runs from a first end to a second end, the first end being adjacent to the motor housing section and the second end being adjacent to a connection section;

wherein the attachment unit is removably coupled to the power tool at the connection section;

wherein the attachment unit slides onto the connection section in a direction generally parallel to the longitudinal axis of the motor housing section;

wherein the attachment unit is a storage container;

wherein the storage container includes an upper housing and a lower housing which define a storage space therebetween; and

wherein the upper housing is movable relative to the lower housing at least when the storage unit is not coupled to the power tool.

8. A power tool, comprising:

a housing comprising a handle section, a motor housing section and a connection section;

a motor housed in the motor housing section;

an output member selectively driven by the motor;

a user actuatable trigger for activating the motor; and

an attachment unit removably coupled to the connection section;

wherein the attachment unit includes an upper housing and a lower housing and a storage space is defined between the upper housing and the lower housing;

wherein the upper housing includes one of a slot and a rail and the connection section includes the other of a slot and a rail;

wherein the rail slides into the slot to connect the attachment unit to the connection section; and

wherein the attachment unit slides onto the connection section in a direction generally parallel to the longitudinal axis of the motor housing section.

9. The power tool of claim 8 , wherein the upper housing is movable relative to the lower housing at least when the attachment unit is not coupled to the connection section.

10. The power tool of claim 8 , wherein the upper housing is rotatable relative to the lower housing at least when the attachment unit is not coupled to the connection section.

11. The power tool of claim 10 , wherein the upper housing is connected to the lower housing via a hinge.

12. The power tool of claim 8 , wherein, when the attachment unit is coupled to the connection section, the upper housing is not movable relative to the lower housing; and

wherein, when the attachment unit is not coupled to the connection section, the upper housing is movable relative to the lower housing.

13. The power tool of claim 8 , wherein the attachment unit further includes a latch which secures the attachment unit to the connection section when the attachment unit is fully coupled to the connection section.

14. The power tool of claim 13 , wherein the latch is formed on the upper housing.

15. A power tool, comprising:

a housing comprising a handle, a motor housing section and a connection section;

a motor housed in the motor housing section;
