Dulce,

You can follow the lead of welders, who need to keep their welding rod
dry. They have either spendy custom-created rod-holders, or they make
a basic wood cabinet with a light bulb mounted inside. I have such a
simple box to keep my epoxy from freezing in my studio during the
winter (on those rare days in Seattle when it does freeze). I also
keep a couple tools there if I don't want them to be exposed to
fluctuations in temperature that would cause condensation on the tool.
Seattle is a relatively low-humidity environment, so even a plain wood
box without light would keep tools from rusting here.
