Is there any sort of standard colour coding (I've found a few sets
advertised with colour coding but I can't see any sort of consistency).
I was just thinking of marking my PZ bits with a black stripe for PZ0,
brown for PZ1, red for PZ2 and orange for PZ3. (Think resistor colour
codes, they're embedded in my brain so easy for me). Then maybe a
single colour for all Philips and another for slotted as these are
less frequently used.
Sounds like a plan. I suspect using the R code is going to be better than whatever colour code some bit makers use. For philips you might use the same basic colours but dilute them.
