Keep Your Binding Bearings Organized, Labeled, and Ready to Use
Every guitar builder eventually discovers the same frustration: router bearing sets are easy to lose, difficult to identify, and almost impossible to keep organized.
Whether you're using the StewMac or LMI binding router bit system, the bearings typically arrive as an unlabeled collection in a plastic bag. Every time you cut a new binding channel, you're left measuring bearings or guessing which one produces the depth you need.
The Cariko Router Binding Bit & Bearing Storage Box eliminates that problem.
Designed specifically for luthiers, this precision storage box provides a dedicated location for every bearing in your router set, along with storage for your cutter and related accessories. Each bearing location is permanently labeled with both the resulting binding channel depth and the bearing diameter, making it easy to select the correct bearing without stopping to measure or consult a chart.
Spend your time building guitars—not searching for bearings.

Why It Matters

The result is:
- Faster setup
- Fewer mistakes
