I'm looking for a source to purchase the types of plastic cases that drill bits and sawzall blades come in. The type that slide into each other.
I'm also looking for a source for empty drill indexes I like the octagonal ones like the. It cooler and the norsemans. They are sold under several brands so there must be a way to get your hands on one empty! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Huot is the leading manufacturer of drill indexes. If you just do a search (in google, amazon, ebay, etc.) for "Huot Index" you'll find a bunch of them. The circular type one you asked about that Norseman, and other drill bits often come in is called the "Bit Buddy".

I'm not quite sure what you're describing with the plastic cases that bits and sawzall blades come in? Are you talking about something similar to these?

I have a Milwaukee Sawzall and it comes with a metal case. I picked up some PVC pipe at the local ACE hardware store along with two end caps. I cut the pipe to the length I needed for the spare blades I had. Then I glued one end cap to the pipe and the other end cap I just slid over the pipe. With the blades inside the PVC pipe and both end caps on, the blades are protected and I know exactly where they are. Was cheap to make and it works great.
