Handy Bit Maintenance Kit, Small Chisel Plane

  (item 68994; $34.99) provides an all-inone solution for cleaning and sharpening router bits up to 3¼" in diameter. The translucent reservoir on the base holds 10.5 oz of cleaning fluid, and it has windows so you can assess the bits inside. Its blue lid features five circular holders that are stepped to accept ¼"-, 8 mm and ½"-shank bits and secure them for inverting into the reservoir. The flip side of the lid forms a/", /" and ⅛" hex wrenches for removing pilot-bearing screws.
