Keeping chisels safe
Hello everyone!
I was making a work bench for myself to keep my workspace de-cluttered (at least that's the thought).
I was making a little chubby to keep my chisels in, the thought being having them rest in a little box on cedar so that the edge won't get worn at all. But, I've also heard it's good to keep tools in sand mixed with a little oil to keep the rust off and keep things sharp. But, I know sand is abrasive, and can scratch.
So, would putting chisels edge first in a bit of sand be a good idea? Or would it do more harm than good?
