Not sure about the likelihood of a package like this traveling through the USPS system without being sent back to the sender... but definitely very cool, and a great way to keep your bit safe during travel!<br />
<br />
Here's a bit of an exclusive tip for our valuable community members planning to buy a new drill bit. Try and find a Kreg Jig Mini kit... instead of just the KJD bit. They're only a few bucks more than the bit itself, so it's like getting a free Mini jig with your purchase! (a tip you'll only find here)</div>

Oh so close! I hadn't thought of the check. I am wondering if you will send it back in the same package??<br />
Very very clever. This should become the standard for sending in bits. I had no idea you could send wood through the mail... and for $2.58!<br />
And BTW... I had on my list for my Friday shopping trip to Lowes a multi-mark and a new bit so I could send mine in to be sharpened. Now with this idea I know what I will make over the weekend (cast off oak is ready and waiting)! Please post…

I think kim should get the prize- You were giving away a 1000 screws, shipping paid weren't you?<br />

Yes, now that I think about it Geocache have a rule about having to use specific tools to get them open I would think. But what fun it would be!<br />
<br />
My question about it being a bit holder... which seems to be the logical thing... is how would you get the screws in or out if your driver bit was in it? Unless you had another one.<br />
