How I changed my mind on brush storage after a sooty disaster

I used to keep all my chimney brushes in a tangled heap in the truck. After one tipped over and covered everything in creosote dust, I now hang them on a wall rack. What's your go-to method for keeping tools clean and ready?

Dry them after washing to prevent rust.

A wall rack is a game changer. I started giving mine a quick hose down before they go up, keeps the dust from settling in the truck.
