Chose the length of your pipes to fit in your tool box drawer. Cut to length.
Now split tubing down the middle and sand all your edges.

Drill Holes

Now drill clearance holes in both ends of the half tubes. Chamfer if you feel so inclined.

Cut Wood

Find a couple of scraps of wood and cut them the width of your toolbox drawer. Using short wood screws attach half tubes to wooden strips.

Fill Up Slots

Now just fill up slots with tools of your choice!! I filled up with boring bars and such. My inserts do not bang arohnd against each other and i can find what i am looking for.
Hope this cleans up a tool drawer for you!!
