A Good Bit of Advice
Once again the eZine collective did not let me down — you have provided me with excellent advice as to how to store and organize my router bits. There were many good options, often with images, and I imagine I will be following up by building some version of storage. (Check out the Feedback page for a selection of your letters.) I am sure when I get to it, I will overthink and overbuild my solution. Like Popeye, I am what I am.
So, thanks for your feedback and for taking the time to give me your ideas. (None of you volunteered to build me a storage system … but I understand!) I will keep you in the loop, and you will be the first to know how this situation ends up.
