Drill Press Storage Cabinet

As I mentioned in a previous post , recently I have been rather obsessed wit h shop organizing. Time is scarce, and w hen I go int o the sh op, I don’t want to hav e to hunt and

peck for anything. When I upgraded the drill press to the Delta 20-95 20” variable speed drill press, I quickly got frustrated with running all over the shop getting various dr

bits. I decided it w as tim e to make a storage cabinet. First step wa s th e upper cabinet. It would h ouse most of t he drill bit sets, as well as various other bits I us e in the cordl

drills.

Top cabinet complete, and installed . . .

Next step was to build the lower storage cabinet. It would house some other bit sets, as well as larger cutters and LONGER cutters. It would also give me a table top when







open to put all the removable inserts in both cabinets.

OK, so I might sound like an organizational freak . . . but for me, happiness IS an organized shop. Everything in it’s place, everything has a place. When I come in, I can justgo to work. And clean up is a snap!! Happy woodworking!

Hi Anchul;

I don’t know why you think your obsessed with organization. Looks about right to me. (for a machine shop) LOL

Very nice arrangement.

Every time I slide a 4×8 sheet effortlessly through the sawstop, without worry, with accuracy, I am blessed!! Ezee-feed was one of the BEST saw

accessories I ever purchased Lee.

cool , cool and cool

I liked how you made the lower cabinet with drawers too

and the use of the bottoms to slide in and out will hold for generations

take care

Dennis

Excellent bit cabinet I like the adjustable expandability of the shelves. I used to think all bits go in one place and all blades go in another place. But

over the years this local machine or task oriented storage of accessories makes more sense.

Hi Anchul/

I especially like the multiples of the twist drills, each size with a little cut off of PVC pipe as a holder and all neatly marked.
