Lets assume you are making an assortment of drill bit, tap, ER32 and ER40 collet and other tool organizers.
Lets also assume you are making them out of wood ... most likely MDF ... because it is cheap and relatively easy to machine.
The question becomes "What do you apply to the wood [MDF] to prevent the oils, etc. that will be on the tools from harming the wood and to prevent the moisture that will be in the wood from harming the tools?
It needs to be easy to apply and not thick ... as in significantly alter the size of the hold drilled to hold a bit or tap, etc.
Thoughts?
