Made some tap boxes
Sorting out my messy tap drawer and decided to make some boxes so I'd be more organised... and figure out what I had that was surplus to requirements.
First iteration
Sliding lid, three compartments - one for each type.
Later on I made them stackable more easily with some locating pegs and cutouts, and will go back and add that to the other sizes. I also dropped the brand name from the lid as I found I had a bunch of sets that were mixed brands and having the wrong name on the lid would just annoy me. There's also a little ridge inside each compartment which stops the tap from sliding around inside if it's short.
Currently doing yellow for BSW, red for imperial and blue for metric.
I can do up some sets for others if there's interest - I'll end up adding them to the 3D designing/printing website once I have tweaked the design a bit more.
