Storing Knick Knacks in old Altoid Tins

Pictures and description on Rik's Workbench

It's kind of an unwritten rule in the Maker community: You're not a serious "Maker" until you've made something out of an old Altoids tins!

Well, here's what I came up with for eight Altoids tins that I'd collected in my "future projects" tote.

This creation uses:

• 8 altoids tins
  
• threaded rod
  
• nuts
  
• 3D printed 'hinges' to mount Altoids tins onto rod
  
• Scraps of wood to make a frame (metal or plastic would also work)
