A frame builder might run frame-prep tools daily; a high-volume retail shop runs them weekly at most (typically as part of a new-frame build). Storing them in their own dedicated drawer means they don’t compete with the daily-driver chain and wheel tools for top-drawer space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor shops without a frame-prep service catalog, the SET2-2600C is unnecessary; the bench gets along fine without it. For shops that do offer frame builds or specialty work, the tray is the way to keep the tools organized and accessible without burying the daily-use inventory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSized for the bench-integrated 990WD7 drawer in the Unior 2600C Master Workbench; full-width 1\/1 footprint at 562 x 570 x 30 mm.
