Product Huot Drill Bit Cabinet

[Aliva]

For anyone looking for drill bit storage I just purchased this from Amazon. at what I feel was a very good price + free shipping. $105+ taxes
The best price I could find for a Huot product. Huot lists the same cabinet for $98.62 U.S. + taxes and shipping. Vevor has a similar for 89$ but they've been out of stock all summer, and don't know when they'll get any.
If you search for Huot on Amazon you can see the prices vary from $105 up to $700

I snagged two of these at a curb side garage sale full of bits. Love em. Still don't keep my best drill bits in them though. I use small envelopes in Tupperware containers instead.

That is a good price for a genuine Huot.

I use Huot drill stand/cases which are nice quality. The junky ones are just frustrating.

But I seem to have the same issues with dedicated drawer units as I do with plastic compartment boxes. They never seem to fit my needs of variable quantity or size or.... unless I buy a set of set screws or retaining rings off Ebay for less money than the container costs at a craft store. I bought some of these plastic tubes online & they are proving to have utility in my shop. Come in all kinds of sizes so you can customize the purpose. For example I use certain taps & drills I counterbore combinations a lot, you can assemble them as a job set or separate them by size.

Storage wise I've been a cardboard box guy for some time. But the trick is to get them the same size so they stack nicely. I used to get recycle ones from work for free but the digital age has mostly replaced the prior paper product they arrived in & my freebee supply chain has come to a halt. Uline has what I need for 2$ a box but min order is typically 50, sometimes 100 depending on size.
