These apparently sold out fast, and the price is no longer listed, but a little bird told me they were going for $25. A really great idea, for when you’re done prototyping and ready to launch your mint-tin project out of a cannon, into high orbit, to the bottom of a lake, whatever. [Thanks, Alan Dove!]

$25 !! Good grief! Seems like the whole project box industry is overpriced for something as simple as a box. Innovate! Wouldn’t a tab and slot locking system be easier and cheaper to make?
Talk about overkill… Isn’t there something sturdy somewhere in between an Altoids tin and a box that is machined from a block of aluminum? I just hope the manufacturer recycles all the aluminum chips generated by making these.
Hammond Manufacturing makes lots of different nice cast aluminium boxes for less than $25.
