       11 . The storage device of  claim 1 , further comprising a liner connected to a portion of at least one hanger.  
   
   
       12 . The storage device of  claim 11 , wherein the liner is structured to be positioned between an interior surface portion of the hanger and a portion of the cable.  
   
   
       13 . The storage device of  claim 1 , further comprising a handle connected to a portion of at least one pedestal.  
   
   
       14 . The storage device of  claim 13 , wherein the handle is connected to portions of at least two pedestals.  
   
   
       15 . The storage device of  claim 13 , further comprising at least one loop connected to the handle.  
   
   
       16 . A storage device structured for use in connection with a cable connected to at least a portion of an elevated structure, the storage device comprising: 
 a base including a tool tray portion and a storage bin portion, wherein the tool tray portion includes at least one tool-receiving opening formed therein, wherein the storage bin portion includes at least one partition forming at least one compartment therein;    at least one pedestal connected to the base;    at least one hanger connected to the pedestal, the hanger structured for receiving at least a portion of the cable therein, wherein the hanger includes a quick-release device operatively associated therewith;    a handle connected to a portion of the pedestal;    at least one loop connected to at least one of the pedestal and the handle;    at least one accessory hook connected to the base; and,    the storage device being structured to be suspendable from the cable.    
   
   
       17 . The storage device of  claim 16 , wherein a first portion of at least one hinged pedestal is hingedly connected to a second portion of the hinged pedestal.  
   
   
       18 . The storage device of  claim 16 , wherein at least one pedestal is removably connected to the base.  
   
   
       19 . The storage device of  claim 16 , further comprising a liner connected to a portion of at least one hanger.  
   
   
       20 . A storage device structured for use in connection with a cable connected to at least a portion of an elevated structure, the storage device comprising: 
 a base including a tool tray portion and a storage bin portion, wherein the tool tray portion includes at least one tool-receiving opening formed therein, wherein the storage bin portion includes at least one partition positioned therein;    at least one pedestal connected to the base, wherein at least one pedestal is removably connected to the base;    at least one hanger connected to at least one pedestal, the hanger structured for receiving at least a portion of the cable therein, wherein at least one hanger includes a quick-release device operatively associated therewith, and further comprising a liner connected to a portion of at least one hanger;    a handle connected to a portion of at least one pedestal;    at least one loop connected to at least one of the pedestal and the handle;    at least one accessory hook connected to the base; and,    the storage device being structured to be suspendable from the cable.
