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

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 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!

Sturdy little boxes, perfect for small parts, paper clips etc. Very reasonably priced.

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!

Nice gold color, worked for a small task and did the job. The quality is good but two did arrive dinged up a little. The other four were fine. All functional and good enough for the price.

If you look up DIY emergency kits, they almost always discuss small tins as the ideal size and makeup for a pocket or EDC (Every-Day-Carry) version. Years back, the only option was an Altoids mint tin. After chowing down a tin of "curiously strong" mints, VOILA! Instant emergency tin. But now, at nearly $5 a pop for the Altoids, you can turn to Amazon for an ideal alternative - in this case, for 1/4 the price of Altoids!I wasn't crazy about the gold color from an aesthetic standpoint, but as it turns out, it really doesn't matter. At the end of the day, function over form, and these tins are ideal for my needs! I've included examples of how I'm using them—in this case, for emergency medical tins that I keep in my BoB (Bug-out Bag).The 3.7" x 2.3" x 0.8" dimensions and 0.23mm thickness are ideal, making them strong but light enough to carry. If you are selective and good at space management, you can pack a whole lot of gear in these: fire starters, fishing hooks and line, utility knife blades, water purification tablets - you name it. Let your DIY imagination run wild!I can't stress enough the need to create an EDC emergency kit. You never know when you will have a breakdown or, if you are a camper, will get lost on a hike. Carrying an EDC emergency kit can make the difference between life and death. Just a reminder - you should also carry a good quality knife. Please check out my Amazon knife reviews for my thoughts on knives!

These are very pretty, and they are the perfect size, for small trinkets, a set of stickers, or for I used them for... Anti-sickness medicine for a whale trip in Monterey California. I used this in one of my Gifted Bags for a Family Reunion. I covered it in detailed design with date on outside and whale decal inside. It fit a tube of Dramamine, instructions, chewy dramamines, and some mints. The ocean can be very rough in the open sea, but that is the best place to see the Magnificent Blue Whales!

I’m doing a project needing an Altoid box. I don’t buy Altoids so was going to buy a few boxes, as well as gold paint. Then Someone suggested looking here and I did. I was able to buy 6 boxes already a beautiful matte gold for less than Altoids and gold paint! Cheaper, easier and less work, I’m all ready to start my project!

Arrived quickly. Not secure when closing, a slight bend in the lid and side would add more to prevent opening. Measurements correct, used for fire stater kits and had to seal with rubber band to secure.
