Are you someone who is hesitant to discard their emptied and cleaned, ready to recycle, sardine cans ? Is it "electronic" , this affinity ? .. but a search for project ideas is not overly forthcoming :palm: with plans. https://www.instructables.com/Soldering-Iron-Base-made-with-a-sardines-can/ |

I used that kind of can to store small parts because they are conveniently stackable and I still have a few piles of them but I have since switched to plastic tubs of spread cheese which are more convenient in several ways. I have many piles of these each one holding little components which i know I will never use but you never know... |

Haha, very enterprising of that hacker. But I found that Altoid tins, or rather their generic workalikes, are a thing at the usual online markets, e.g. AliExpress. I must hang on to my Nivea tin when I've used up the contents. |

For me abstractly, the can's size and material and structural properties are crying out to be taken technical advantage of - but for the want of a practical plan :palm:. |
