Everyone needs a business card holder so why not make one? This is from an offcut of oak from a previous project…. waste not want not!

The hinge is a short piece of brass rod, and anther bit was used for the catch to give a satisfying ‘click’ when it’s closed.

This business card holder comfortably accommodates 20 standard business cards which could be more than enough for most meetings before you need to top it up.
