Information

      My other hobby is Trading and Baseball Cards.  Large trading card supply manufacturers make basic/plain white dividers for your cards.  Thought I would use my new laser hobby to develop some dividers with player names in the team colors.

This was the result.

Instruction

Step1

I did the following steps to create:

Clean 12" x 12" piece of 1/16" or 1.5mm basswood
Spray painted basswood color of choice. In my case, I used my favorite teams color. Both sides.
Change names on template to desired output
Run the laser engraving process.

Some notes on item:

These are similar to the tall trading card dividers you might find in supply market
The player name used will have to be adjusted and centered properly as it will change with the length of each name.
The size is perfect if cards are unsleeved or in standard penny holder sleeves. However, if cards are stored in top loaders I might extend the length of these by a ¼" to account for the holder height.

Hope all find a nice addition to your trading card collection and organization.
