I carry a lot of things with me on my day-to-day and my go-to case was getting too packed. I was looking for a better EDC solution and stumbled into the OrbitKey Nest, since I don't have that kind of money, the need for all the extra features or the patience to import it where I live, I decided to design a similar, simpler solution. Since adding magnets to have modular internal organization felt like too much of a hassle, I went with making it big enough to fit 3 Altoids tins (the 50g/1.76oz ones). Added an elastic band to keep it closed and we are done!

Provided are the files with the separate parts: Body and Lid, and a file with both if your printer bed is big enough. I also uploaded the scad file if you want to tweak the dimensions.

Extra parts: a 1ft/30cm long elastic band to secure the nest closed. Just bend it in half, thread it trough the hole in the back of the body, tie a knot so it wont go all the way trough and secure it under the hook on the front side.
