Tool Holders

R8 Machine collet holder made from an old refinished lock box.

Tool bit holder. Slide draw pull out for easy access.

Making this tool holder with over a hundred holes, it was my motivation to finally add a motor to the Z axis of my machine. I used a variable speed drive controller from a Razor electric scooter.

Tooling Draw in motion. Draw is mounted right next to the machien for eazy access

Quick access to the essential tools built right into the workbench. You can also see here my stock of medium length materials that I commonly used to build things with organized by plastics, steel, aluminum; rods, tubes...

Being right handed and having the hammer and punches to my right as I stand at the vice is efficient. Also since I am regularly cutting metal you will see that I have the small hand bandsaw right under the vise.

Quick access to tool post tool (Orange).

Setup wrench (Blue).

Small chuck key (Green).

Micrometer (Black velcro).

Cordless Drill and Driver holder. This is made from a large hanger used on a pegboard the loop holding the drill would normally be the part hanging down on the pegboard providing support as the pieces going into the workbench would normally be hanging out to put tools on
