Can you buy a empty rekey kit box. I can't afford to buy on an figured I would buy what I needed one brand at a time and fill it up that's way.

Started by using a pill organizer until got full kits. Still use them for ABLOY discs. You can pick them up at a grocery store or pharmacy. Easy enough to scratch off the days of the week.

Check your local craft store. They have all kinds of little boxes with cubby holes. I recall one for bobbins with the holes being in the shape of half cylinders-would make pins easy to pick up.

That's a great idea Gordon. My local Ace Hardware has a whole bunch of different size plastic cases with the dividers inside. I think they are meant to hold different size screws but they will work just as well for pins.

I think you would be better off with a real pin kit, have you checked out a used one?
