Today we're going to make this elegant fixture for the drill press. It will help keep all of our bits, be it forstner, spade or brad point, at easy reach. I'm proud to have this drill bit storage solution on my drill press, every time I go to use it. And you'll be thrilled to know that, besides this step by step video, I have a webpage that has a complete materials / tools used list as well as a set of files you can use to make the face of your new fixture. All absolutely free.
