A series of drill bit boxes I printed up for the shop. We suffer from that problem of having 20-30 years worth of bits all gathered up and just tossed into a pile so this is the simple solution I set the printer on when it wasn't being more productive.
The bottoms are rounded so you don't get bits stuck in the corners like traditional square boxes. The top is radii as well so you don't even need to print supports on the inside.
I do 3 wall layer just to make sure it will build the curves properly. Other than that, nothing special about how its printed. You could probably print it with just infill for the bottom layer and be good if you wanted to save time and filament. I was more worried about caring it to the mill and back so I printed the bottoms.
