    Insert caddy

    I'm not sure what others are doing to carry their fragile globe sight inserts to and from the range, but this is what I came up with. Simply a discarded magnetic business card flipped magnet side out and placed into a business card pocket carrier. Simple easy and pretty much free.

    Ingenious! Anybody could carry them in a small container, but the magnet will hold them in place and let you pick out just the one you want without having to dump or risk spilling the rest of them. Good idea.

    I was carrying mine in a small Ziploc bag in the patch box . That was a fumble of all sorts. Lol.
    This is cheaper and potentially more solid than the plastic box for 12.00 I've seen out there

    I have been keeping mine in the little slide top plastic box that the 3 cornered lathe tool inserts come in. Each little compartment inside is just the right size . Holds 10 I think.
