Abstract

An apparatus and method for storing an instrument is disclosed. A cabinet (30) has walls (32, 34, 36, 38) defining a cavity and a door (78) that allows access to the cavity. The method involves opening the door to reveal the cavity and inserting the instrument within the revealed cavity. The door is closed to deny access to the cavity. Ambient atmosphere is allowed to flow within the closed cabinet to dry the instrument.
