Thanks Alex, that is a good start at thinking about
this.
Opening and closing a drawer and rattling around makes
sense. Right now the box is just sitting below a workbench on
a shelve so only gets moved when needing a reamer.
I have at least 50 reamers in the box and another 50
scattered?around the shop.
And then I have end mills some separated and some glomed
together.
I am actually starting to think about sliding tray storage.

the box never moves it probably isn't a problem.? If it is

I
3D print divided and stacking holders for my loose drills,
taps, and reamers.? This takes up more space than if they
are all banging into each other, but not a lot more, and
is better for storage.
Why is it said that reamers drills or other metal items
should not touch when being stored?
I have a box of reamers from a yard sale that has > 50
reamers all lumped together in a wood box.
I cannot imagine how much room would be needed if all of
these reamers were in individual holders.
These reamers have been together for years they were in
the box before I bought it 10 years ago.
So why is it said to not allow them to touch?
