Production jig for multi business card holders

I sometimes get requests for things I have made one of and find that making a second one is as time consuming as the first and prone to the same errors.
To avoid this I try to make jigs that take the guessing out and speed up the process when the need arises.

Special thanks to Dusty56 who inspired me and helped me get up and running on this project.

Bob,
I thank I enjoied the jigs more than the outcome. lol You did a fantastic job in the step by step. This is the stuff mentors are made of. The clamp for the routing, now that is neat. Did you make that too? When I see the end of the project, being so new to woodworking, I can't imagine all the steps that go into it. This is great for us newbee's. Thank you, Rand

like the idea but i'm confused
the 7th picture down, with the protype blank, looks like a comercialy built one

i've had a couple near misses with small stuff
glad it's not posted in "safety in the shop" forum
it's in my fav list, just that one pic that threw me

Ron, I think you're talking about the small parts clamp to rout the blank, thats not the actual jig he made

also very cool stuff bob!
