Extra Bit holder?

Extra Bit holder?
August 03, 2014 09:23PM
Hey everyone:
As I am getting more advanced with this I am changing the bit more often. I keep the collet wrench on the side with a couple of magnets but want some more protection for any extra bits that I'd mount on the side.

So, has anyone worked this out? Have files to share? I can and will work it out myself if I must but don't want to reinvent the wheel if someone has this worked out.

thanx
M

Hmmm..... good idea.... first thought is a small block of wood with some magnets.... and use a drill press (or handibot) to create slots (not drilled all the way through) for a few bits to sit in.....

Funny, that is what I ended up doing. I had done larger ones for holding the whole of the bits I own, I just reworked it a bit for four bits only. I can't figure out how to attach it to the HDPE so it is stand alone for now.

Hello All,

As we've been working on the next physical version of Handibot we've been planning on a holder for the collet wrench and have some pretty good ideas ... but some sort of holder for cutters would be great too. Let us know if you come up with something you really like and want to share in a few pix.

Thanks, =Ted
