How adventurous are you?
How about a wall hanging cabinet for all those bits?
Want to try making some coopered doors for that wall hanging cabinet? Would look really nice on the wall in the shop. Pull out shelves with bits in their own holes. Couple of small drawers for allen wrenches, bearings, router wrench(es) etc. - all in one place.

Come on guys (and gals if you're out there) - this is a woodworking group right? And what better way to learn a new technique than to try it on a piece of "just shop furniture"? If you blow it, well it's "just shop furniture".
Why not have a go at a coopered doors, wall hanging cabinet? Great project to experiment with joinery - sliding dovetails, coopered doors and maybe some veneering if you get a little over the top (as some are prone to do).
With a little luck it might turn out surprisingly nice. And when a shop visitor happens to notice it you can always say "Oh that. It's just shop furniture."
Making coopered doors for a small cabinet isn't all that hard. Making the cabinet to fit around them - well that's a different story. (all one line so watch the line wrap)
