Needed a lidded storage box for tiny parts like small screws. Hate how much trouble it is to get screws out of the “assortment” boxes from China so I custom designed this box with a ramp to help pull screws out with a finger:

The model is fully parameterized so you can generate other sizes and different numbers of rows and columns. I've included a bunch of sizes, you can do your own with Fusion 360 free version.

If you want to merge some cells you can use Fusion 360, just select a cell side wall or back wall and extrude (E), you can drag to merge two or more cells as shown:

The lid uses M3 screws for pins, print-in-place plastic hinges are cool but these using M3 screws are cleaner and adjustable friction. 

I'm using PLA but any material will work, no support needed if you print the lid upside down.
