    Question Material Storage

    I'll be moving back to Minneapolis this June and am starting to plan the trip. On the move down to Milwaukee my tubes and steel bits were packed in cardboard boxes and spent 2 days in a moving truck and some of the tubes ended up with surface rust. Depending on how the transition to the new shop goes my supplies could be packed longer.

    Any ideas on how to minimize surface rust? Throw some silica gel packs in each box? I really don't want to coat everything in oil.

    Thanks, Joel

    Oil/ rust preventative is how they come- seems a little spray could go a long way.
