I bought a air hammer yesterday with quite a bit of attachments (used, i haven't actually counted how many i have yet haha), and i was wondering how you guys store your bits. I have the box organized nice so far, but these bits are just scattered.

i'll upload a picture of my new hammer and bits in a few minutes.

I just have them lined up longest to shortest in my air tool drawer. Nothing special, they don't go anywhere.

I have a pile of bits in the corner of a draw filled with air tools

alright. i was trying to see if anyone made like a rack or something, but i guess its not as universal as like a screwdriver rack or something to those lines.

I don't. They have all been launched across the shop at one time or another into the black hole where things go never to be seen again. Or maybe they're thrown in a small cardboard box in my air tool drawer... I have one drawer full of just air tools. I keep small stuff in the cardboard box, the wrenches that came with the right angle die grinder, various air chisel bits, air drill chuck key, etc. Nothing fancy but it's a working mans box, NOT a display box...

In a drawer.

I gotta say, I understand wanting to be organized, but at some point c'mon throw it in the box and call it a day... All these special organizers to spend more money on. I see 10,000 dollar toolboxes on this site all the time, and it amazes me how delicately people treat them. :confused:

Thrown in a cardboard box with the rest of my air tool stuff, which just so happens to be conveniently placed in the drawer with all my air tools! If I had a super special organizer for every tool, bit and accessory I have I would need 4 Mr. Big tool boxes.

I store mine in a cut-down 1 gallon jug right next to the tool. I keep an extra retainer spring in there too.

I haven't done the research yet. But price wise I think Lisle is decently priced. Not sure on quality

Lisle makes good tools. Mayhew and old forge are the top names last I heard. Made in the US and supposedly snap on relabels them. Never had a problem with either!

If you are looking for a wall or pegboard rack than a screwdriver tool rack like below should do.

If you are going in a drawer, maybe a smaller version of the wire CD/Dish-racks people mod for use with pliers might help. if you are looking for something custom, you are probably looking at drilling a block of wood in some way.
