Me too!
Dang Ed, you've got that printer thing down to a science.
Every one of those types of blow-molded cases suffer the same fate eventually. First the latch falls off and the 'hinged' lid goes next. They are OK for storage but don't last long in everyday use.

I know you guys are probably getting sick of my 3D printed boxes so I apologize if this is getting old.
This time for my pin punch set.
Ed
This is how I stored them for many years.

Not at all Ed. I just want to know when you are going to start accepting one-off commissions.
I have to resort to empty pill bottles.

If you have pill bottles that you can fit pin punches into Willie, I bet they aren't pills that you swallow

I use those to store router bits in.

Au contraire mon frère! You haven't seen my watch pin punches.

The only problem I'd have with those boxes is not being able to see the contents. I'd forget where I put things.
And I have a pill bottle storage solution that I have almost completed. I'll post another thread on that soon.

I'm guessing he will be implementing 3D text soon to identify each box.
I want one of these. Maybe I can find a wide enough steel rule to maybe mill one out of?

I've already started investigating that.

All I have to do is open the end to reveal the contents if I don't remember what's in the box. But that's another reason I don't make the boxes the same color. Now that would be confusing for sure.
I'm fairly well organized. But on occasion when I put something in an illogical place, as long as I keep putting it there I remember where it is (most of the time).
