I saw one of these in the fat Grizzly catalog and have been thinking about it for a while. They offer one for 5C and 8C collets. I think they may be about to discontinue them because online it was in the blowout section. I had a thought to turn some grommets out of brass to put in the holes so that I could display all the MT3 drills I have but since I recently learned that the tailstock isn't for drilling I am not sure what I will do!
The drawers are hastily made and there is a large, although uniform, gap on the sides. I have aligned them to look good in the picture but they need to be shimmed to always look well crafted. Pretty sturdy box though, if money were no object I might like to have a few of these next to each other near the lathe but I can't do that right now.
Here's the sweatshop where they get made. I don't like the idea of my money going to China but it was an impulse buy!
