    Default Router bit cabinet

    Here's a little cabinet I made to tidy up my router bits.

    I'm trying to tidy up the shed and I had a pile of different boxes for different bit sets and things I've accumulated over the years, which is messy and a real pain when you just want to grab a bit and get on with it.

    The design is based on something I saw in Woodsmith Magazine a while ago.

    It was good to do a few dovetails as I haven't done any for a while, and they're not too perfect as they aren't seen after installation, so I could just relax and enjoy doing them without any pressure.

    The timber is spotted gum from left over floorboards, and the shelves are just made from 90 x 45 pine I had lying around.

    Nice going on the cabinet. We all have a few things to clean up in our particular working environment. It is encouraging and inspiring to see these types of projects.

    I dont have that many router bits but do have other things that need attending to.

    Thanks, Bob, the camera's probably been a bit kind to me there but I'm happy with them.
