: A trick I used before my workshop got properly sealed was to store
: all my tools in a cabinet will a well-fitted door and a
: nightlight in the bottom to expel humidity. That tiny amount of
: heat kept them all rust-free for years.

: I don't have a large chisel inventory like some folks, having lost
: all my old tools in a fire. I have just a set of 3, Japanese,
: from Lee Valley Tools. They are nicely ground, take an excellent
: edge and hold it well. Plastic handles admittedly, but they are
: tough. They were not expensive either . . .

That fire didn't get started by the light did it?
