edit 11 Feb 2021: I uploaded my most recent iteration; a more comfortable lid, tapered, with more clearance. And the thing is scaled up about 140% over the original, but feel free to scale a bit in your slicer.
I made a "toolbottle", 4" tall and 1.5" wide to hold taps / drill bits. iIt's a monster. Beautiful.

There are a few of these "out there" and honestly they're all great. I've used the "keychain-container" (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1692698) for years; I highly recommend it.
I made this because I wanted to practice design without support, and I needed to print another container for disposable foam earplugs. I shamelessly stole the look/feel of the keychain-container design (it's excellent), but I did start from scratch to basically remove the support required in the "lid" part.
The threading is designed to fit *close* but they should screw together without any cleaning required. I do recommend printing the lid & body separately to avoid a sea
