Brass Drill Bit Holder

[8man]

Was in Dad's shop with him and he had found this drill bit holder.


After a little cleaning you can see it is from the Cleveland Twist Drill Co. I have no idea how old it is. You can see it is for small drill bits and it has the size of the bit next to the hole on the stand.

I was cleaning it up to use in my new shop until I showed it to the wife. Now it is apparently going to be a trivet in the house! At least I know it will be well cared for now.

There is a recent thread over on the vintage tool forum about these, might want to post it there. It's very cool.
