A tackle box (10) is disclosed that includes a rotatable cover (20), one or more storage trays (30), each having a substantially three-quarter circular periphery, a bottom tray (40), and central shaft (50) for vertically stacking and mounting the storage tray or trays and rotatable cover to the bottom tray. Access to the tackle boxes compartments is made by rotating the cover and/or the storage trays. The side walls of the bottom tray and storage tray or trays in combination with the bottom tray floor and rotatable cover form the exterior surface of the tackle box. the number of storage trays that are included in the tackle box may be varied by changing a point of connection between the central shaft and the bottom tray.

[ The embodiments of the invention in which an exclusive property or privilege is claimed are defined as follows:] [1.] A storage container comprising:(a) a bottom tray having a generally circular periphery, a floor, a peripheral side wall extending upwardly from the floor around the periphery and defining an internal portion therein, and a shaft receiving means centered on the floor;(b) a first storage tray located over the bottom tray and having a circular periphery, a floor that provides at least a partial cover for the bottom tray, a peripheral side wall extending upwardly from the floor around the periphery, a central shaft receiving sleeve, a first hole through the floor providing access to the internal portion of the bottom tray, and sidewalls extending upwardly around at least a portion of the first hole;(c) a second storage tray located over the first tray and having a circular periphery with a floor that provides at least a partial cover for the first tray, a peripheral side wall extending upwardly from the floor around the periphery, a central shaft receiving sleeve, a second hole through the floor providing access to the first tray, and sidewalls extending upwardly around at least a portion of the second hole;(d) a cover having a circular periphery and a third hole therein and a central shaft receiving sleeve;(e) a central shaft coupled to the shaft receiving means and extending through the shaft receiving sleeve of the storage tray and the shaft receiving sleeve of the cover, the ventral shaft allowing the first and second storage trays and the cover to rotate around an axis defined by the central shaft so that the first, second, and third holes can be selectively aligned to provide access through the first, second, and third holes to the internal portion of the bottom tray; and(f) a locking mechanism to selectively restrict rotation of the first and second storage trays and the cover around the axis defined by the central shaft.
