ABSTRACT:
A container is specially configured to enable a user to withdraw stored fasteners such as nails, screws, bolts, and the like. The device includes a receptacle base having a bottom wall and a continuous side wall that can be somewhat squared in shape. The receptacle base could be cylindrically shaped, oval shaped, or any other selected shape in plan view. A lid removably attaches to the side wall at the wall upper edge, the lid including a lid front section and a lid rear section. A hinge enables the front lid section to rotate about a hinge axis of rotation between closed an open positions. Each lid section has a raised portion that includes a plurality of inclined surfaces that define frictionally engaging correspondingly shaped socket and projecting portions that interlock when the front lid section is opened. An interference fit or frictional fit generated by the engaged socket and projecting portions holds the front lid section in the open position.
