OHH thats sweet, will make some of these. Thanks so much for sharing!!
Whoa, the one and only! At risk of being too forward, I badly want to know how you and This Old Tony handle your video production process. Particularly, the ones where you explain your designs, testing, etc. as you go about making things. (ex: how you came up with the snare sound and ended up with dry rice). If there's ever a chance for some sort of brief knowledge sharing, I'm all ears...figuratively speaking.
Look it's that guy!
Martin, knowing how incredibly busy you are with the Marble Machine X project, let me know how many bits of each shank diameter, plus any collets and/or tool holders you may need to store, and I'll design and cut a custom organizer for you, and ship it to you!
John Coloe I’m deeply offended that you didn’t offer this service to me...
@@KeithsTestGarage Sorry dude, you're still not a celebrity like Martin :-) Suggest you start making animated tools that also play music :-)
Physicist here (and nerd): Your glue explanation was very scientific. You had multiple instruments, a methodology, a theory, multiple prototypes, and an open data set. I'd say this puts your research quality in at least the top 50% of all scientific papers. Also, at 14 minutes, this video is around the same time it would take for me to read a paper that covered the same thing. Props for your editing job, I can see that it was agressive, but all the stuff I needed was in there - I especially loved "Take a screenshot, I'm not gonna read it off to you".

BS! It’s all confirmation bias and no epistemological foundation!
Just kidding. Being cheeky. 😉
Brilliant! Gonna carve your slots down all four sides of a 4x4 scrap, then hang it from a rafter near the router table. No shelf or wall space required! Thanks for the slot measurements.
Not a DIY enthusiast, don't have a garage, not even a drill.
Content is entertaining.
Voice over soothing and interesting.
Editing is good and on point.
Just a touch of dry comedy and confidence.
When you said "numbers" and gave the numbers, that's when I knew.
Subbed.
So awesome! I have no idea how on earth somebody would give this video a thumbs down. I have come to the conclusion that those people either, a) accidentally stumbled on this video with no intentions of watching it, or, b) they don't innovate or use a Dremel or rotery tool of any kind. Me? I LOVE my Dremel collection and use all of my stuff as much as possible. Thank you for this amazing idea! We need more great ideas like this in the world. The part where you said "just bust out some of the columns and use that part as a tray" is when I realized this simple design was a MUST HAVE for guys like me. Fast too! Thank you!
You deserve the Shop Tips and Tricks of the Year Award!
Thanks for the great idea, I literally have hundreds of ¼ impact driver bits. Rather than plywood I used ¾pvc which produced 0 tearout with ½ spacing between dados. I used a 13x13 units of America piece of material. Rather than the sled I used the fence set at ½inch then snuck up on the best fit for a ¼ bit. The best part of this is you can make four passes before you have to move your fence. With that one piece I was able to make enough for my impact driver case and for a French cleat shelf for my shop.Thanks again for the great idea
Ahhhh 4 passes because you rotate the board each time? Brilliant.
Out-bloody-standing!
I agree, I think it’s impossible to starve a glue joint unless you’re in a factory using an industrial press. Or you’re Matthias Wandel in your basement using some chopsticks from the local Chinese restaurant and a 2x4 you got outta the trash.
Hey man, Reduce, Re-use, Recycle!
YES, and with the shelf storage it is GOLD, thanks
This is a fantastic approach. I have several little blocks around the shop with holes drilled in them for bit storage, etc. I want to try this next.
Great idea! And the add on suggestion of knocking some out to make slots.
I totally agree that out of sight is out of mind. I have purchased a specific bit for a project, not get around to it for a while, forget I bought it, and buy another one.
Bits are like clamps. The answer to how many you need is always "more".
Brilliant idea -- well done -- good dialogue; great video and lighting; excellent sound; good pacing and editing -- very well done! Thank You
The speed at which you could make these is just a dream!!! I wish you’d create more storage videos because I’ll watch! Someone that I think you think alike with is “Paw Paw’s Shop” seriously pls make more
Stay tuned. I have more organizer-related ones in the lineup. Next one is probably about the Fluorescent to LED conversion, then I'll resume the Usability series which will inevitably have organization strategies that don't seem to be common.
Thank you Keith -- you have actually saved my life
Whoever invented the wheel back in the day must have felt like you did when you thought this one up. The simple solutions are always the best. Well done.
Yeah I imagine so. My wife actually recommended I do this video, telling me of how she remembered me running into the house gleaning with excitement when I made the prototypes a year before.
So simple yet so brilliant. Thanks for sharing!
This is genius! I put it in the lineup for our show this week. Thanks for posting!
Thanks! Subscribed. When is your show?
Keith's Test Garage Every Friday at noon. 👍🏻
Great concept. I will be copying. Have never seen your channel before but now subscribed and being notified.
Thanks for ringing the bell! I’m working on a pretty intense (maybe overkill?) dust collection video that I’m super excited about. Stay tuned and thanks for the sub and comment!
Great idea! I've been a cabinet maker for 25 years and this beats all my solutions. I'll be making some soon.
The most brilliant solutions seem to be the simplest. I love this idea and can't wait to try it.
Thanks for showing your design work on the spacing. This is a smart solution I never liked using the Dremel kit box in the shop.
Only one word for this - genius!!
Ron sent me, and delighted he did. Thanks for the idea and your video - quirky and very enjoyable. All the best. Cheers, David.
Best instructable I've seen in a couple of years. Great job, man!
I don't own a single router/dremel bit, but I still really enjoyed the video. Well produced and edited with great pace and personality.
Very well done, got me interested in something I never would have expected, through a quality video.
Dustin thanks!
I LOVE the way you put this video together. Instructive and Entertaining. Terrific job.
Thanks for the video.
This sort of sharing of solutions is why the EBEn's gave us the internet in the first place.
Forget the glue and skip the wood.
Take this to your local sheet plastic retailer and ask them about sheets of Delrin (Acetyl).
Make one out of plastic and you can make a mold and sell these.
Hope this helps.
Keep up the good work.
I was thinking lexan or acrylic sheets, or black nylon for the cool factor.
I particularly like the concept of using dado cuts rather than drilling holes because when I drilled my bit holder board the bit and the hole were almost the same size and my non-moisture proofed shop rust locked the bits in the holes which were a tight fit anyway.
I know what I'm building next weekend. It will be nice to finally be able to locate the Dremel bit I need from my massive pile lol. Thanks for the video 👍
Brilliant! Really appreciated the narrative/process for how you got to this point.
Such knowledge, enthusiasm and passion. Excellent!
Nice project.
Great video work too.
Thank you sir.
WOW! Amazing idea! Thank you. Now I need to go buy a Dado set. God Bless.
Great project and excellent presentation of your design evolution.
I used this idea to make several trays for 1/8", 1/4", and 1/2" shank bits and I adapted the idea to hold onto the bases of 1/4", 3/8", and 1/2"-drive socket extensions.
I made my trays out of scraps of dimensional lumber from the big-box store that had been sitting around my shop for a while. I have a couple of things to add. If using pieces of solid wood, make all the crosscut grooves first to reduce the amount of tearout and missing squares. I found the spacing in the video for the 1/8" and 1/4" holders to be a bit to small when using softwood. Keith's spacing figures obviously work well with quality plywood and probably work with hardwood as well.
For those that want to customize the groove widths for bits and bobs of some other diameter, the groove widths are easy to figure out with this equation:
Groove_width = diameter_of_object / sqrt(2)
(maybe add a tenth of a mm or a couple thousandths of an inch for wiggle room)
You must of thought about that for a long time. The good thing is you answered my question I been thinking about for a long time.
Thank you.
Great idea.
Awesome! That’s the solution I’m looking for!
You are a f’n genius!!! Thanks been scratching my head trying to figure out a way to organize my bits.
brilliant idea , love the rubber clamps lol , great video thanks for posting from Garry in the UK
I loved the video and the calculations as well is the music, well narrated too. Looking forward to more of your videos.
Brilliant solution.
Loved the job and the sometimes funny voice over. So refreshing to have someone without an irritating over excited shrilling voice.
Wow! Top notch... well done! Such a great idea! Your channel gives me hope. Thank you!
Two thumbs up on idea, and three for video production value....
For the 1/4" bits you can make a wobble dado using your thin curf blade and a few strips of masking tape on opposite sides of the blade, under the saw flange. Bit more tear out perhaps, but not if the blade is sharp and you feed slowly enough.
I know how the next half hour of my workday will be spent! Thanks!
thumbs up for a great video - 2nd thumbs up for the "rubber clamps" - love it
What a great idea. Thank you for sharing. My workshop will improve!
Great project. I’ll be making some for myself. I especially like the car clamp 👍
Sometimes I see a good idea and I did thank you. I appreciate the persistence and attention to detail great job. You are correct it is better to see all the bits at the same time.
Excellent video. Creative, concise and enjoyable
Fantastic idea. I've got this weekend's project set up.
Lol. I also had made a cute little bit holder, then a second bigger one, and was only recently designing a step 3 - "the tray to rule them all". Glad I'm not the only one.
Entertaining, educating, and funny. Good job thinking outside the sorting tray.
Somebody probably already pointed this out so excuse the repeat post: Divide the shaft diameter by the square root of 2 → that will be the minimum kerf width. So 1/2" uses 3/8" cut, .25 uses 3/16" and so on. I have some 8mm router bits for an old European router which would use a kerf larger than (8/25.4)/√2 = .223", say 1/4"....and so on. This is a really good idea and I thank Keith for posting it.
So are you saying you didn’t thoroughly read through the comments before double posting? :). Thanks for it though. A few weeks ago I actually went back through comments to try and find the equation but gave up. So, I screenshotted your reply to have it handy.
Great video, I laughed so hard on the rubber clamp part. Well timed.
instead of putting the square peg in the round hole, you put the round peg in the square hole. brilliant out of the box thinking! fantastic!
Love the idea! Also your use of graphics in the edit is very nice!
Hey thanks! I'm excited to see you as a subscriber....particularly because I have a few videos in the lineup about 3D printing in the workshop. As you're aware, 3D design & printing is a game changer!
Fantastic idea. Thnx for sharing. I really like your "rubber clamps"
This is awesome. I think I'm going to start working on this tonight.
At first I didn’t like ur idea, but wen I saw u storing them on the shelves I thought that was really cool, n then all of a sudden ur deemed not storing idea made sense, worthy of admiration
Frick. En. Genius. You sir should at least be nominated for a Nobel Prize. Not joking.
Very cool! I just spent an hour drilling holes in a block to hold my forstner bits. I'm binning it!
Holes are good too!
I love the detail you put into your videos. Great work.
Concise, Interesting, Entertaining, Humorous... Liked and Subscribed.
Holy AWESOME project! Bitman... uh Batman. that is really cool and easy. I can't wait to give this a try.
I like this efficiently, quick, bits organizers, thank you for sharing.
Very well done. Thorough, great camera work, some humor ... Thanks!
Ha. Thanks! That makes me want to do a video of my current "production setup". It involves more rubber bands, pipe cleaners, and hot melt glue than others I've seen.
Thoroughly impressed! Video, idea, humor, creativeness...oh and you’re a millennial. Good job!
Cool idea, and I really liked the outro music, Nice choice.
Very nice! I’m building several now
Thank you - this is exactly what I've been looking for
Add epoxy into channels. Just tape up sides; break off one square to act as a reservoir; flood till 1/ 8" or more in channels.
Great video: info, presentation, & production (even with earthquake cam)!
For clamping large surfaces: look for the theory on clamping chauls to understand the physics.
I am sold! Tomorrow morning! so sweet! I will have happy bits!
This video is so well made!
So useful, innovative and a great video to boot! thanks
Very clever. Thanks for sharing. Happy New Year!
Awesome idea! Thanks for sharing and GREAT video!
Great video, new sub from paulk workshop
Raymond Malone Hey great news! I’ve been planning on mentioning Ron in an upcoming video/series about usability, and was excited to see an email a few days ago that he subscribed.
When posting my last comment, I didn’t realize Ron posted that video. So I thought you worked for him.
Awesome for Endmills and Drill bits too! Thanks a Million!
Unfortunately I can only like this video once. Great idea and fits in the system of storage trays. Very smart!
This was the trick I was looking for. Thanks!
Kewl idea!! Totally digging your ending music as well.
Outstanding idea for bit storage - I will try this! Thank you for all the work to post this!!
Glad it was helpful!
So simply it's genius! Love it!
That "test" process actually made me laugh out loud. And I never use LOL for fear of coming off disingenuous.
I just came across your channel and very glad I did. I will definitely build this. I also like your storage rack and table saw panel slider will look into that as well. Nice touch with both empirical and metric measurements.

I want to see what's in the "Cool Nails" organiser. 😂
You know, the cool nails. None of the common nails. Hand cut, Coffin ... Finger?
Neat! Simple but effective.
As for the rubber clamps - I fell out of my chair 🤣
Very interesting. You might however be surprised at how small the contact patch of an automobile's tire is. Brilliant idea that I'll be using for my Dremel storage. Well done!
Thanks. This is brilliant and the proof's in the pudding...or the fact that I or anyone i know has ever seen this before. Plus the additional bonus that with this nothing has a dedicated spot. So you can return a bit, disc or whatever ANYWHERE there's an opening. AWESOME JOB and thanks again for sharing it. 👍🏾
@Roderick storey thanks for the correction.
Great, great, great video!!! thank you so much!!! great technique, awesome, editing, music and voice quality was great. honestly i loved this thank you!
Brilliant idea! 👍🏻
Great video! Informative and entertaining. I'm going to sneak off to the shop to make some of these for my wife's out-of-control Dremel bit collection. :)
This was truly a great video. Great way to soothe a monday morning.
Wow.. space saving AWEsomeness !! Really like that !
Great inventive & effective idea. With the cabinet I plan on building for my new Rockler router table stand, I may just try this technique for storing my bits and accessory parts. Thanks! To solve your sliding layered glue-ups, I saw a video that effectively used a light sprinkling of course salt between the layers -- result, no sliding!
That's a brilliant idea regardless of how you came up with the spacing and dado widths.
Wow very nice! Thank you for sharing!
That is just the most clever thing I have ever see on You Tube.
Genius idea! Great video
I love this idea! I have subscribed.
