Making a quick and dirty OSB storage box for my rotary tool bits

Tools and materials:

Rotary Tool Accessories Kit

Table saw

Cordless drill

Cordless Impact Driver

Angle grinder

Air compressor, nail and staple gun kit

Piano hinge

I made this box out of 15mm OSB stock I had in the shop. It will help me keep my rotary tool bits organised and easy to find them when I need them. 

I begun my laying out all the bits I use. 

Then I cut my stock to size on the table saw. I set a stop block on my cross cut sled. With a series of cross cuts I created half lap joints. 

I glued and nailed the 4 sides of my box. I trimmed the excess material on my table saw. 

Once I glued and nailed the two last pieces in place, I cut the box open on the table saw. 

I used the grinder to cut a piano hinge to size and I screwed the hinge on the box.  I also installed a simple closing mechanism in place. 

At this point it was time to make the compartments of my box. I temporarily nailed the same pieces together so I could cut all the notches at once. 

I glued and nailed the compartments in place.

For my small drill bits I just screwed their casing on the cap.

For the chuck keys,  just epoxied a magnet in place. 

I used a chord to create a stop mechanism for the cap. 

For my carving bits and my chucks I created a couple of blocks. This way I can find them much easier, since I use these pieces all the time. 

My little box came out nice. Hopefully all the different bits and accessories will now be much easier to find and use.

But that was it. See you soon with a new project video.
