Need a brush case!

I need a case for sign brush storage that will hold oiled brushes securely without disturbing their shape. Any suggestions? o_O

I use a empty candy cardboard box with aluminum foil on the bottom and soak the brushes in oil and it is cheaper than a tackle box.
Had this box for 30 years on the shelf. Just don't let it get wet.

I also have use tranny oil for quite a while, with no problems. Never like Lard oil and once Sapphire brush oil disappeared I switched to trans fluid.

Never liked lard oil either, it smells and roaches seem attracted to eating the hairs on your brushes. Still have a some transmission oil left, but it is from the 60s and I am sure there are more additives now in the newer oil, so do not know if it would be good to use for brushes.

My late Uncle used to use a TV Repairman's case that held all the tubes. Back when they made house calls
