There was a thread a few weeks back about belt storage and it got me wanting to try something different. I had been keeping them hanging on the wall but they would get dirty. So I tried keeping them in a drawer but ended up not liking that. Then I made this, I took some pvc pipe and cut it in half and embedded it into a 2x4, then I mounted the 2x4 on a full extension drawer slide and mounted it under a table top then stuck a bolt in for a handle. This is working much better. Thought I would share.

Nice set up.

You may want to keep those scotch brite belts in a drawer or plastic bag. They get contaminated really easy and ruin the belt.
 
I like it. For me I would probably put the other side on and doors in the front. Even if they don't go to the floor it would keep most of the grit off.
 
Now that's a really good setup.

I like the Dremel milling machine. Who needs a bridgeport. What do you use that for?
 
Haha would rather have a Bridgeport but you do what you have to do.
This is stuff I had laying around .Its a dremel and its attached to a Stewmac router base and I used it to cut the lock bar for a liner lock. It has a plexiglass shield that I remove when changing pieces to be cut, it works good blocking sparks and lets me see what Im doing. To change the cutter remove two nuts holding the dremel , change wheel and reinstall the dremel and the cutter will be in the same place
