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!

Handy To Have
These tins are the perfect size and great quality. I originally only needed one to store fire starters in my camping kit so really didnât need this many but since I got them, I have quickly found uses for most of them organizing small parts and accessories. They work great and have tons of uses.

Should have been a different shipping method
I ordered the 6 pack of tin boxes. They arrived in bag rather than a cardboard box. One of the tins was crushed and had to be returned. Otherwise the product fits my needs and I am happy with the five undamaged tins. I am waiting to see how the return is handled.

Excellent quality and size for emergency kits
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 themâin 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!

Good size
I found these boxes to be a good size for what I wanted them for-they were deep enough to be roomy enough to actually hold something. They are a very reasonable price if you’re using them to hold party favors-nothing fancy.One of the tins I received was dented and damaged in shipping and that prevents me from giving 5 stars.

Nice economical shape, better than an Altoid tin
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!
