Bryce Bell, a Mechanical Engineer from Oklahoma, is another Engineer that has a soul of a Designer. I love these guys! He shares, on his website Cardnetics, his 2 crazy transformable business card creations that literally reinvents the term boardroom battles! Check out the videos after the jump!


Cardapult


This 3.5″ x 2″ business card unfolds into a fully functioning catapult suitable for launching bits of paper of paper clips at your annoying neighboring cubicle. Ariel bombardment at its best. Now where did I put that thumbtack? For more information on how to purchase this check out his Bryce’s website.


Penny Shooter


His latest creation is just screams crazy fun! The Penny Shooter allows you to stack 10 US Pennies and use them as ammunition to take out that annoying gecko or colleague. Whatever it is, this little baby means war! Bryce is currently selling his prototypes, and if he can sell enough, he will turn this design into a proper production run. Check out how the prototype is evolving here.
