Does anyone have an idea where I could obtain a decent psk tin/box? I have always carried my essentials spread out in my pockets and in my pack. Since joining the forums I have enjoyed reading about the various psk's that others have and are carrying. I have also learned a lot! I have decided to put my stuff into a tin or box that is pocket size and am looking for something a bit larger than the standard Altoids tin. I have been unable to find their larger tin and have been told by one store that they are only available at the holidays. Any ideas? Thank you for any help!

I was looking for a decent PSK box too. I almost bought a SIGG Aluminum box. But that looked too expensive and (I was afraid) too big.
So in the end I went with an otterbox which I just ordered today. Because I need both a PSK box and a box for firstaid supplies, I purchased both a 1000 and a 2000 model. I'm expecting to use the 1000 for the minimal PSK that I want to put together.
Unfortunately, you can't heat water up in these so I may yet switch over to a tin if one of the right size and quality ever comes my way.

Here's the one I use:

It is bigger than an Altoids tin but will still fit in a pocket. You can boil water in it, just be careful as there is a gasket in the lid to make it water tight when sealed that won't stand much heat.
