 Plastic container boxs can be picked up for free from most sweet shops / candy stores work just as well,  Just saying.

so much work for something that could be squished easy -- instead try re-purposing styrofoam that comes molded around things -- it's hard, doesn't crush easy and is so easy to modify. the easiest bit holders are a block about 3/4 thick with small holes drilled in to stand the bits up-right. however if you want to have a bit of fun (pardon the pun) lay the bit down, trace around it with a fine sharpy, and carve out what is needed with your rotary power tool. be sure to also carve a channel through from one end to the other on center so you've got finger space.

You say "Assemble as the image shows". This kinda leaves me in the dust. I'd like to see some more details as to how things get cut and put together. A photo of the individual pieces BEFORE gluing together could be helpful.

i think you could possibly add some images of you putting it together and sand it down then it will look alot nicer i have just bought a\ little rotary tool (dremels a pain to transport) and it has a nice box and everthing
