I have an embarrassingly large collection of drill bits. Maybe it's a sickness but I love drill bits - especially morse taper ones.
But laying all jumbled in drawers is not conducive to finding the one you want to use.
I am looking for some ideas on how you guys store, index and label yours.
Maybe plywood with holes drilled it it?
Maybe set the plywood at an angle?
In a cabinet? Not in a cabinet
Make a couple of daisy wheels on an open stand that you can rotate?
I want it to be nice. Not some schlocky old thing.
There are straight shank and taper shank.
How do you guys do it.
Another question:
My lathe and drill press are both # 3 MT.
I have #1, 2 and 3 MT drills.
Do I really need the 1 MT drills?
Should I sell them and concentrate on just filling out the other two sets?
Do I really need duplicates?
Just rambling on here but I'd like to organize them better, pare down the excess ones and streamline finding the one I want to use.
