Decline of Money Control.
Boys and Girls,
I posted this project at LJ in Aug, 2020. It may have been after a big Fe$tool purchase as from the length of it, I must have been lost for words… or too busy playing with the new toy in the workshop.

Never made too many of them as only a very few of my friends could afford notes and they didn’t hold small denomination coins too well.
This one I made for a close friend,
who got arrested for walking into a bank sometime in October 2019 with a mask on, claiming it was because of C19… he needed free notes to pack out the clip.
While cash is on the decline, you can clip your credit cards together with these.

Boys and Girls,
It's house-keeping in the LBD household, however, I will keep this short, if not necessarily sweet.
I made this money clip a few years ago from a Craft Supplies kit.
It comprises of a jarrah disc and two letters laser cut/inlaid in the disc. The letter K is out of merbau and the A is out of pine… only cause I couldn't spell LBD.
With the onset of C19, we are quickly turning into a cashless society and I am just wondering if anyone out there hasn't realised this swing and brags the initials of AK... There might be a money clip up for grabs.
Other than the gallery photos, I'm not going into any more detail as I don't believe it's shelf life is beyond a collector's item classification.
PS. Before being accused of being a RF (rich fu bugger)... pictures #1 and #2 are a before and after depiction of my unplanned retirement. Picture #2 is a print on the back of a punched card (some people may remember them and for those that can't, some museums may still carry them).
----------------------------------------- ooooOOOO The End OOOOooooo ---------------------------------------------

Don’t be crafty Craftisians,... SHARE your craft!
If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD

Very elegant, ducky. I still have a simple money clip my dad gave me many many years ago. Nothing special, but it’s still around in cold storage somewhere. How thick was the finished disc on yours? Finish?
Ryan/// ~sigh~ I blew up another bowl. Moke told me "I made the inside bigger than the outside".
That is a very nice piece!
Can't argue with the personalization and utility, especially since apparently Rob stole your wallet?
Elegant piece!

nice clip ducks. i too use less and less cash. ill carry about 50 bucks and thats just for when i buy fast food. otherwise it's all credit cards.
working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.
I can honestly say I haven’t consistently carried any cash at all for probably at least 10 years. Just don’t have the need.

Small but intricate there LBD. Think you got it right showing where the cash went with the festool purchase only left holding credit cards
Classy
Life’s Good, Enjoy Each New Day’s Blessings
