I bought a decent set of Whiteside set-up blocks and they came in a plastic bag (yeah). So I designed a very simple case for them.

The top fits very snug so it won't slip-off.

Fits standard imperial block sets
1/2"
3/8"
1/4"
3/16"
1/8"

I printed with PETG and .3 layer height for speed. The lid is very thin and I thought PETG would hold-up better with the thin lid - but PLA should work just as well. 5% infill is plenty with 3 perimeters.

I know it's not always obvious - but print standing up and no supports are needed.

If you have issues with first-layer adhesion, use a wide brim as these are very narrow parts when printed upright.
