Cassette tape becomes business card case

Filed under: ,

Cassette tapes have been replaced with much more contemporary technology. I don’t own an iPod, but I do own about 300 cassette tapes, so aside from disguising your iPod with a cassette tape, or digitizing your old cassette tapes, what else do you think could be done with those old tapes that are wasting space?

Turning a cassette tape into a business card holder should eliminate any more issues with loose business cards in your purse or briefcase which can be difficult to find when you need them, or worse yet, crinkled business cards in your pockets. All you have to do is remove the screws from the cassette tape, use pliers to break off the plastic pieces, insert your business cards amoung the empty pieces of plastic, and wrap the elastic around to secure the tapes together.

I don’t know whether I would go through all the trouble of tearing up a cassette tape. Why couldn’t you just use the cassette tape case for holding your business cards? I would think you could get more business cards in the tape case than you could in the cassette tape itself. Either way, it is still a cool hack, don’t you think?
