Mill clamping kit holder?

[neilkingent]

Yep the dump, that's where I wanted to send mine but my illness of not being able to throw anything, even slightly useful, away, interfered. It was even in the trashcan at one point but I took it out...

I need to show this to my wife. I'm not alone in my sickness.

you're in good company here.
HM might even be synonymous with Hoarding Machinists. Just saying.

You have that too?
I wish I could get rid of more. And when I do get rid of something is when I realize a use for it.

Yes, keep something for 20 years and never have a need for it, throw it out and 2 weeks later...

@Eddyde
I just noticed that the picture, you provided above, shows (at least) three table saws bolted together (center one converted to a router table).
I've not seen three joined before and I'm in awe of the idea of the wonderfully large table surface and the possibility of two saw set-ups at the same time (if not the immobility ).
Do both the remaining saw stations remain as saw stations? Is there a thread on H-M where the machine has been discussed?

Thanks!
I thought I did a thread on the saw set-up many years ago but can't seem to find it now? Anyway, Yes both saws are functional, the one on the left, a Jet clone of the Delta Unisaw, is for cutting wood. The saw on the right a Delta contractors saw has been modified, slowed down, to cut steel & aluminum. The middle is indeed a router table made out of a Craftsman (I think) saw top.

Yeah, and now look! You made a few bucks on it!!

EVERY DANG TIME!

$0.70 to be exact. But the fact it got passed along to someone who can put it to good use and not wind up in a landfill is payment enough!

That's perfection. I wish I had one of those for all three of my clamping kits.

The "Shop cases" were all the rage when they first came out.

Then after having several sets of tools in these bulky cases you begin to realize they waste both space and money.

well in all fairness, wooden boxes were it's predecesor. I do have wooden boxes, and a plastic (parallels). But otherwise I agree, they eat up too much space. I also have a thread mic that's in a plastic box, because it has all the pitches. But it' like any other mic box. But none of my other mics are in a box, the boxes for them are stored away.
