While visiting a store, I fall upon a box, that gave me the idea to design this model with a press-fit cap and a sliding lid, and to work on my 3d design skills.
It's primarily designed to store screwdriver bits, but you might find a lot of other uses for it.
It's designed so that it is printable without supports.
Load it into PrusaSlicer as multiple parts, not one object made from multiple part (ie. click No when asked after loading the model)
Orient the face of the lid so that it rests on the flat top, as in the screenshot.
Then just press the cap into the box, and slide the lid into the cap.
There is just a 0,1mm gap between the lid and the cap, so that it is able to slide while not falling off on it's own. It might need some back-and-forth the first times.
I personally used a 0,6mm nozzle to print it, but it's not designed specifically for that nozzle size. It should print similarly with every other size of nozzle. I refined the model a little bit after having printed the demo version, so that the parts fit nicer together.
I included the step file if you were to modify the model.
