Tool Slots are made using the same ingredients as the Tool Belt, so you will need to gather more Cloth and Lashings. Fortunately, both are made using fibrous leaves, so they are fairly easy to make once you have the Loom.

To access the storage, look around the edge of the Life Boat. You will find a storage container that you can interact with to store items. There are three slots in total on the Life Boat, so it is best to fill these with items that you can stack, such as fibrous leaves or sticks.
