They are flawed because they require me to replace bits into specific holes depending on their diameter. Too much pressure!
I designed this case to hold drill bits based on their general sizes. There is no need for organizational madness.
Wont they get dull this way? While I wouldnt store router bits like this, I dont think it dulls drill bits much. Plus, I dont plan on shaking them around for extended periods. Ive been sloppy with drill bit storage for years and can confirm that even the ones I have abused the most still make holes. Not to mention, I dont buy expensive drill bits. If one gets too dull, I will buy a new one.
The only part of this box I am not completely satisfied with is the latch. I just hobbled together various hooks and eyes from my parts drawers. It works, but isnt very pretty. But it is just a shop project. Not like anyone other than me will ever see it. I did add some fancy inlay which was quite unplanned.
