Those of you at the Uk fest will have seen my automaton business card holder, but thought the rest of you might like it too. I have a mind to make a life size one, complete with CBG.....

Comment by Roosterman on November 5, 2010 at 5:30am: Glad you like it chaps :o)
I shoulda pointed out though, I didnt design it - they come as a flat pack kit for self assembly. There is the usal 'making stuff fit properly' modifications, but generally they are staright forward. Took about 2 hours I reckon.
They also make a drummer and a pianist... so tempting to build a full band!!
