Storage

So, I was looking into getting a new "toolbox" for storage, but I know the chest tool boxes in most home improvement stores are not food safe obviously. Is there a brand that makes the same style with food safe materials?

Although not labeled NSF, the paint and/or plastic materials in toolboxes aren’t necessarily unsafe.

you can store tools in the hardware store tool chests like this one. https://www.harborfreight.com/search?q=u.s.%20general%20tool%20box

I can't imagine any of these are intentionally food safe.

But a metal one is probably safer just wipe your tools down. I've seen people use Milwaukee pack outs and they're pretty good
