Tip of the Week • Be sure to organize your tools by function!

There is a huge difference between a tool designed for cutting wood and one designed for cutting aluminum. Lay them side by side in a drawer and that difference becomes nearly indistinguishable rendering each tool virtually useless.

Making a tool organizer is a fast, easy CNC project.
We did this at Techno!

Start with a block of wood and simply bore a series of holes in the top for your tools to drop into. If you want to engrave tool names into the surface, mill the top of the block first to ensure the engrave depth is uniform.
