It is often convenient to be able to put tools away while they are still hot. To make this safe, I keep my soldering irons and hot air guns in metal cases but it is necessary to keep the hot ends away from anything else, including their own leads.
Having added a rework station to my collection, I needed a different box. For this, I have used a large army style ammo crate.
I've added divisions inside to separate the hot ends from the other items in the box.
I got carried away. I've sprayed it a gun metal colour...
and stencilled some lettering.
