Irwin Auger Bit Box
Hi. I purchased a old wooden Irwin Auger Bit Box. It is 10" tall, 5" deep, and 1 5/8" wide. Inside of the box has slots cut for four dividers. I would appreciate it if someone would be able to send me a picture of the inside of the box or where I can find an old ad showing it? I would like to restore it and find the original bits for it. I appreciate it very much. Thanks, Chris

another patent drill box
Hi Chris, I meant to send this patent as well, once again, not like yours.
As far as dimensions go, you have the bits to go by.

Ridgway Auger Box
Here's Wm Ridgway's version...

Simpler in design (though I haven't figured out that wooden bar that holds the bits in the lid portion - LH side).

Here is a very similar version to yours. Looks like it holds a few more bits.
