Dewalt drill (DCD800/805/999/1007) bit holders
Print Profile(1)
Description
Made this pair of drill bit holder attachments for my trusty DCD800 since I like having half a dozen bits on me. The DCD800 has the newest design for Dewalt drills along with the DCD805, DCD999, and DCD1007 (see links below for designs that fit other models), so these will work with all of those.
They're contoured to fit snugly and very securely, with an M3 screw (10mm long) and protruding nubs holding them on the same way that the belt clip attaches. Left and right attachments are unique due to the design of the drill. They're actually quite stable without screws entirely. I suggest using a material with some flex like ABS or ASA, but just about anything will work.
**If you have a different Dewalt 20V drill model**, instead of making minor modifications to this design you can use this design, or if you have a 12V, this one.
Screws
Your regular M3 screws of all kinds will protrude into the upper bit storage area a bit, it can still hold a bit but it has to be in front of or behind the screw head. This is a bit of a compromise to keep the model sleek, it was either this or countersink the screws which meant the bit holder would make the drill feel like it's getting too wide.
However, you can solve this problem entirely with ultra flat headed M3 head screws. Unfortunately Maker's Supply does not offer these yet, but they are pretty inexpensive on Ali (especially in multi-screw kits) and not bad on Amazon (for US users). It's a bit of a pain to search for them so I gathered some Amazon listings. Prices can change depending on availability so check out a few:
