Organizing Lathe Chuck Keys

[4GSR]

..........................
And both of them are probably hiding out in the trunk of my wife's car along with my tailstock wrench and those inserts that I am 100% sure I bought.

And what your wife doing with them???

And what your wife doing with them???

Probably setting her groceries on them.

I have a drawer full of tools for my lathe, (spanners, allen keys, screwdrivers, chuck keys, files, scrapers, shims, picks, bits'n'bobs, and other assorted junk.
What I am using at the time determines what I have out ready to hand.

Cheers Phil

I have downsized my equipment and just have a small lathe and mini-mill. They are part of my clock shop which is only 250 sq. ft. So everything is pretty compact and in easy reach.

My chuck key holder, also made from conduit and other scrap metal. No pretty but it works as intended.

Looks pretty to me.

I built this shelf a few weeks ago to organize my chucks, keys an tooling for my mill.
