Abstract
A product with packaging includes a base box having sidewalls defining a cavity, a support structure having sidewalls disposed in the cavity, the support structure sidewalls being attached to corresponding walls of the base box. A tray is attached to the support structure and disposed in the cavity. An outer periphery of the tray is larger than an inner periphery of the cavity, such that the outer periphery of the tray presses against the inner periphery of the cavity resulting in a gapless interface between the two. An outer periphery the support structure is smaller than an inner periphery of the cavity, such that it results in a tension fit between the two that pulls the inner periphery of the cavity against the tray resulting in a gapless interface between the two.
