A quick and fun weekend shop project, this six-tube scroll saw blade holder is designed for a woodworker that will be doing a fair amount of scroll saw work for marquetry. It was specifically designed to accommodate a small assortment of frequently saw blades, drill bits and an Archimedes push drill necessary for efficient marquetry work at the scroll saw. SketchUp was used to make an adhesive drill guide template to accurately drill the ¾” holes for the scroll saw blade storage tubes. The copper drill tube was fashioned from standard off the shelf plumbing parts polished with a series of charged buffing wheels on the drill press. A small test tube sits in a ½” hole for drill bit storage. Organization and readily available tools always makes for more efficient shop production and, hopefully, more inspired work!
