4 steps to heaven - krv3000 - 07-09-2012
hi all this project was a need to i have a selection of drills from 6.1 and up but they once lived in a draw so i decided to mack a stand for them it will go from 6.1 to 13mm its made out of wood and plastic its 300mm long by 150 wide by 80mm hi the wood is 8mm thick and the plastic is 6mm thick i used dividers to space the drills 5mm a part at present the sises are just put on with a marking pen but when all dun they will be all labeled up properly right pics

That's great! Bob,
That's a project I really need to tackle, as my drills are lying loose in a box!

Thats a neat idea!
The only downside is all the drills you would need to buy to fill it
I must get around to making a simpler version of this for taps and exact tap size drills

I need to make racks like that for my piloted drills and the LONG ones. Right now they live in plastic jars. Not easy to find the right one and hard on the bits.
