Wanted to wait to write my review till after I tried them in the fire to make Char Cloth. These held up well through the first firing. Can't speak to later on, but there doesn't seem to be any issues and I plan to char more cloth in them. I tried charring the cloth two ways -- 1) WITH putting a small (very small) hole on top with the very tip of a steak knife, and 2) without a hole on top, trying to rely on the hinges to provide just enough air to char. WITH the hole on top is DEFINITELY better. They almost didn't char at all over 20 mins with no hole punched in top. Also -- I tried them with holes then another two ways 1) with ONLY about 6-8 pieces of 100% cotton Tshirt (cut to size of ID of tin) and 2) filling the tin with the pieces of cut-up cotton. With 6 - 8 pieces inside the tin, they charred beautifully on a Gas BBQ with the lid CLOSED in about 15 minutes. Using same technique but with MORE pieces inside, they didn't char at all even after 30. Both of these cans can small holes I punctured in the top. The second one was just too full. The fabric got slightly brown, but didn't char. I'll stick with 8 pieces and try 1 more, one at a time to fit the perfect amount to char in 20mins. They are the size of Altoids cans. I like the fact they are plain, without a coat of labeling ink. These FIT THE BILL for me. They would also work well as small packets inside my purse, bug out bag or travel bag as the lid is tight enough to hold in place but still easy enough to open.

I made a small watercolour pallete in this rin and it holds 11 Beam Paints stones snuggly with a waxed cotton lining.
