Card Case
Intro
This card case is designed to keep cards safe from the monster that is my backpack. I am proud of this project as it is the first project where I used my logo, and a design that is entirely mine, to solve a problem.

I often bring a deck of cards with me, on holidays or even just day to day, but the tuck box (cardboard box) will often rip or fall apart within a few trips.
CAD
I designed the box in CAD, by measuring the cards, then drawing it out. I added my logo on top, and a hole on the bottom so you can easily push the cards out.

Version 1

First try I got the size correct for the cards to fit, measure twice cut (or print) once! Although, the hole in the bottom was a bit small for my finger.
Version 2
I had a different size of cards, so I changed the sizes, but I forgot to change the size of the slot, so the lid didn't fit. One more try later and it worked, but the hole was still small.

Version 2.5

For this version I made the hole bigger, and it worked perfectly!. It turns out that most other decks I have are that size, so I made a few more in some different colours.
