<p>Last week we shared some <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4643658">fully-customizable handles</a>, which quickly became no. 1 on Thingiverse's "popular things from the last 7 days" list! We are so pleased you liked our project. We really appreciate your support. A huge thank you goes out to you all!</p> <p>Based on the overwhelming popularity of the previous design, we're sharing another fully-customisable design with you. This time we have a fully customizable card dispenser.</p> <p>We originally created this for a game where each player has to race to draw cards. As you can imagine, the cards were constantly ending up in a huge mess! Well, not any more!</p> <p>We created this card dispenser to keep things a little more organised, but we soon realised that card dispensers are useful for many games and even for things like business cards!</p> <p>We hope you find this useful. We'd love to know how you've used this, so please share your makes and comments.</p> <p>This design is*<strong>completely free</strong>* and shared under a permissive license.
