I thought i should share the pimpin' magnificence of the (slightly early) father's day present Rowan got for me (thanks Dawn!) its an oak business card holder; the fine craftsmanship of a Japanese woodworker dawn found online. ill have to track down a link to his stuff, cant seem to find his site. basically he deserves promotion as his work is proper quality ken, magnetic clasp burried in the wood an' a'hin'. so sweet. it does a good job of augmenting my new letterpress business cards i think you'll agree, although you could put bum fodder in there and it would still look daddy.
thanks Rowan, thanks Dawn, and thanks mysterious Japanese carpentry master from the ether.
Found your blog via http://woods.jezburrows.com/post/700775882/fledgeling then, several hours later, came across this http://www.hermanmiller.com/lifework/five-fabulous-gifts-for-dads-desk/ which led to this http://merchant4.com/desk/wood-card-case.html
