Standard & Metric Hex Nut Sorter and Storage Box

Do you have a box of mixed nuts?  Are you wondering how big your nuts are?  Now you can sort your nuts and keep them organized using the metric or standard hex nut sorting and storage box!

Simply print all three (support free) parts and snap the lid into the hinge. Place the sorting tray in the box. The sorting tray is sized to sort the nuts like a child's shape sorter. Place the nuts in with the across the flat diameter against the sides of the hole, as shown on the sorter insert. Begin with the smallest size hole and move up, one at a time, until the nut drops into the box below.

The sorter is labeled and can be removed using the finger hole in the upper right hand corner. The sorter has pins at the top, so it only fits one way, and your nuts will always line up with the correct box when you remove and replace the sorting insert.  The inside of the box is also labeled so that the size of the nuts can be read, even when the sorting insert is removed. The boxes are available in 25mm and 50mm heights to accommodate a larger or smaller quantity of nuts. 

The metric hex nut sorter & storage box sorts nuts of the following sizes: 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 10mm, and 12mm.

The standard hex nut sorter & storage box sorts nuts of the following sizes: #2 and #3, #4, #5 and #6, #8, #10, #12, ¼", 5/16", 3/8", and 7/16".  The difference between #2 and #3 nuts and #5 and #6 nuts is the inner diameter of the screw hole; the diameter across the flats is the same.

Parts can be printed at 0.2 layer height and the tolerances allow them to fit together. No supports needed when printed with the lid text side down.
