6 Pcs Metal Hinged Tin Box Container Mini Portable Small Storage Container Kit with Lid for Home Storage 3.7x2.3x0.8 Inch, Silver

Bon produit

Great little tins, the size and build similar to Altoids mint containers. I use my leftover mint containers to store my crochet notions (sewing needles, stitch markers, small scissors), so I can easily grab the tin and throw it in the project bag I want to work on. But I only had 2 mint tins, so I bought these so I could have a bunch of notion containers ready to go. I bought the extra scissors and stitch markers on Amazon as well, divided up my craft sewing needles, and assembled them all in each tin. I usually have about 1/2 dozen projects going at a time, so now I don't have to play "find the notions box" when I'd rather just grab a kit bag as I'm running out the door to work or other places. Great tins for organization. The lids are attached so you can't lose them, and function fine. These are perfect for holding my notions when I'm on the go, and I love the dark gold color. I now have 10 kits prepared and I always have plenty available!

I was using a candy tin with the same measurements to pack some electronic equipment for travel, a small AM/FM radio and wired ear buds. The radio fit perfectly, but the earbuds could not squeeze in. I ordered these (actually by mistake, I didn't realize they were exactly the same dimensions as my container). I was going to cancel the order but they were on the way, so I waited. When they arrived, I could see that the angles in the corners of the containers were a little sharper. Still rounded, but not as much. So, I tried putting the radio in, and it fit (like it did in the other). But, there was more wiggle room because of the slightly better defined corners. It ended up providing another 3/16" of room inside, so that both the radio and the earbuds were easy to pack into it. Although the overall dimensions (L, W, and T) are identical to my original box, the volume is actually considerably larger! The only downside is that the bargain price per box required me to buy 6 of the even though I really only wanted one, but you know, it justifies the free shipping. Anyway, I can find uses for the rest. They are far sturdier than acrylic that is so common, and they aren't plasitic, but rather recyclable biodegradeable steel. Good product. Note that they also have hinges so that the lid can't get lost. I knew that when I bought them. Just realize that there is no way to make them air tight or water proof with the hinges. I would have preferred to buy a box with no hinges, but could not find any. No hinges would have provided some protection from water for this box, but that was not a priority, mainly I wanted to protect the radio and keep it together with the ear buds. Mission Accomplished!

La grandeur d'une carte de crédit , très pratique

I actually bought these to make Die Hard Christmas ornaments. Being hinged the way they are it was easy to separate the two halves and use the deeper side for the ornaments. I think they worked out pretty darn good!
