Drill bit storage box?

[Gage]

I'm looking for something which can hold 5+ of each drill bit 1.0-10.0 and .5s between. Any ideas? Can't find anything online, or maybe I'm not searching correctly

I have a big pile of those plastic tube things that the tool shops get the drill bits in that screw together.....I also keep packets of drill bits in the tool bag, haven't been able to find any fold down boxes myself except a metal one that holds 1 of each size...

I've just got an old buscuit tin!

All the small ones naturally roll around at the bottom so I know where they are

Lid held secure with a smidgen of black insulation tape, red and G/Y clashes.

I've also know more dedicated people to drill an hole through box and lid and secure firmly by a 2 BA brass nut and bolt cut to suitable size, but that is just daft

Really ?????

Maybe if it was mint :angel_smile:

joking aside I heard of a bloke that started with nothing but used to trawl the tip for old crates, and jugs and ... anything really that you now see adorned on high up shelves in theme pubs. He ended up making millions selling it to pub chains.

And I guess old, genuine 'distressed' baccy tins are in that category
