OK, this is not mine, I have no affiliation and I got this from another forum.

However if you have a desk and business cards..... this has got to be on the list of things to have.

Any QLD cobra club members perhaps we can bulk purchase for these in a flat rate shipping box.

Yes, very cool, and certainly a talking point.

I don't see it as professional if your cards need to stacked sideways.

Everything displayed to a customer should be legible from their seated position, without tilting their head.

I would buy one for display purposes, and not use it for their intentions.

Each to their own.

That's awesome.

Count me in for two if we can do a deal on shipping!

Guess you could always get a V-16 version to hold them sideways?

Yes, that's right.

If they have the ability, why not scale it up so your cards will sit the right way?

A V8 scaled for the cards to sit the right way would cost more in material and machining time, but would be negligible.

I agree, make it bigger and I’m in for a couple.

And then you can use the cylinder chambers as pen holders too... just so you had a pen handy to right up the quote. Lol.

Or one could have their cards printed the other way?
