Friend of mine has a neat way. He cuts 4" lengths of 3/4" or 1" plastic pipe,
caps one end, cuts a vision slot on one side, and then drives a brass or
aluminum screw into the wall (drills a pilot hole first, then pokes the driver
through the already cut vision slot). He also marks them with a Sharpie as to
type. Simple to modify, neat, keeps the blades from rattling around anywhere,
and keeps them right at hand.

Whoops. My answer was for scroll saw blades. It will work for jigsaw blades,
too, but don't cut the blinking pipe as long.

I put them in the top tray of my Sears
rolling plastic tool box in the van.
Sometimes I forget to put the tray
back in the box and it spills out when
I go over the railroad tracks. They're
in there somewhere...

Wife takes blood pressure medication, and requests the tall pill containers
at the pharmacy. I drop a tapered divider in for two, tapered and glued for
three or four compartments. Then, depending on your desire, you can stuff
'em into any hole they won't fall through in a shelf, through a plywood
front parallel to the wall etc.

Speaking of which, didja see Cal Thomas' article today? He told
them all to go to www.cagw.org , the Citizens Against Government
Waste, to view the booklet "2003 California Piglet Book". I
think I'll stop by and see what they've got in the Oregon Piglet
Book, too.

I've got several of those plastic film containers nailed to a
tubafore<G> and the blades are in them. Those little containers are
handy for all sorts of stuff. A 3" piece of PVC siliconed or hot glued
into one holds scroll saw blades quite nicely too.

Somewhere, I bought a little plastic holder, abour 1"x1"x6", with a
flip up top on one end. It attaches on the cord. Anywhere the saw
goes, the blades go.

I like one of those little organizers like they sell nail and screw assortments
in, with the plastic drawers. I put labels on the drawers and keep router bits,
jig saw blades, driver bits and those other little things that cost a lot and
get lost easily. I have one fastened to the wall so I won't knock it over.

My shop is in an unheated garage/workshop. So I like to keep all my
different blades as open as possible so that they are not contained
any more than necessary. In order to ward off rust if stored for a
long time. My jigsaw blades go in a wooden box that is too big for
them but is nice so that you can see them. Once in a while I spray
the insides with WD-40.

My Bosch jigsaw came with a case that has a compartment in it to store the
blades. I have about 20 in there now.
