I picked up a set of Ryobi router bits is a case, but needed more storage for bits, wrench’s, and other attachments. So here is a solution that should work for me.

Next up hopefully something similar for a sanding station....

Nicely done.

I agree, very nicely done!

Nice job !

Nice! Like the use of the hangers also.

THANKS all.

Placement was a little tricky, to fit it and get it balanced. And adjusting the T-tracks/bolts so the shelf’s could be easily removed.

I'm pretty jealous, your storage unit is great. My router bits are in ice cube trays in a large shoe box. Yech.

Why?

It started when I got my first router and a handful of standard bits with 1/4" shanks. I needed something to keep them from banging together and I'd read somewhere that ice cube trays worked. We had 3 or 4 in the house so I started using them. Fast forward to 21st century.
I keep adding to the bits year after year so any plan seems to be obsolete in a few years. I can never decide where to put a cabinet nor what size. (Unlike most woodworkers my router table doesn't have a regular stand. I use a B&D Workmate, which normally hangs on the wall next to the router table, to hold my router table when not in use.) I moved into a larger shoe box twice, which store nicely in a closet above the compressor.

But the most important reason - I never take the time to design and build a unit - because I'm a procrastinator.

If procrastination was a bad thing ... they would have called it concrastination.
