Abstract
A container for holding small parts and the like of cylindrical construction having a body with a number of wedge-shaped cavity compartments closed by a rotatable lid having an opening for accessing each of the cavities. A tab removably closes the opening and contains a pair of stops which project into one of the cavities. The tabs interact with the walls defining the cavities in the body portion to prevent rotation of the lid until the tab has been removed, thereby preventing pilferage of the container contents. The lid is joined to the body by a snap fit.
