Ridgid R82235 12V Cordless JobMax Oscillating Multi-Tool Starter KitI was building a sous vide controller, and I wanted to put my components in something. Other people had used this plastic box as a project box, so I decided to, as well.

It arrives without a coating, and the plastic is so thin it is hard to cut. I tried to decide on a scheme - hot exacto knives? I finally went out and bought a tool to cut it, a gadget that had a vibrating saw - I bought one from Ridgid,Ridgid R82235 12V Cordless JobMax Oscillating Multi-Tool Starter Kit but Bosch and Dremel have the equivalent. I went with the Ridgid because it came with adapters to use the other companies tools, and, in fact, I used the dremel tool because I liked it better. A hundred dollar tool to cut a $5 box, sigh. The problem was that the lid didn't fit - and it never fit, from even before I started cutting it..

If I were planning on using it as a display case or a storage case, I would have returned it. This is the sort of thing that wouldn't bother you in a store. You'd pick the cases over, and you'd look for the ones where the lids fit well, and you'd take those with you, putting the others on the shelf.

But you can't do that when you mail order, you expect someone else to pick the item over for you.

I cut a little out of the rim of the case (always in my plan) and that allowed me to deform the lid enough that I could force it on - it wanted to pop off, but I taped it down (something else that was in my plan) and it stayed down. So it gets a three star review from me, even though I was not using it as a storage container because a storage container that has a lid that won't fit does not cut it.

If you are going to use it as a project box, and you are OK with taping the lid down, it will work OK.

I got another one of these from a different vendor and the lid on that one fit fine, but I believe that to be random.

I bought these for my baby tarantulas--a few holes with a sautering iron, a quick wash and some substrate and voila! Perfect housing for tiny tarantulas. I know that's not what they were intended for but they certainly do the job well. They're nicely built containers and would make nice display cases for small collectibles too.

These were a bit larger than I had expected - but are sturdy and work well for clear storage without the worry of glass-breakage.
