I bought a similar box like this one in the link long ago. Lots of colors and sizes but I think I mostly use the 2-3 smallest sizes.  If it fits snug before I heat it up then it's the right size!   ;D

Also if you do buy calipers spend more than 10$. I got a cheap ass set off eBay. They get the job done-ish but I can tell they are real crappy quality.

Harbor Freight digital calipers are OK for this kind of work. Don't spend extra for fractional inch readings unless seriously math challenged.
