I currently store my chisels in a drawer. This has served me well for a while, as I only have 8 and the entire drawer (14" deep X 15" wide X 4" tall) has been dedicated to their storage. That is, there has been enough space between them that I haven't needed a physical barrier to prevent them from knocking into each other.
My shop is small, and this is no longer a good solution (and likely never was) - that drawer space is getting more valuable as I accumulate tools. I would like to free up some of the space that I have been relying on to protect the edges. Since I use (some of) the chisels often, I do not want to store them in a roll, and I am also hesitant to give them a permanent home on my bench as that real estate is non-negotiable.
Does anyone have a good suggestion for storing these babies? My goal is to stow them safely, somewhere easily accessed, taking up as little space as possible.
Oh, I have looked into and ruled out cutlery/silverware-type trays, as I don't think this would save me much space.
Thanks,
