   I am sure I will be of no help to you but I 'think' I recall something from Incra tools that gave instructions using their hinge drill thing. Not sure!

   "flip-open box from one piece of wood" by Daniel Mosheim

   I have made several of these... I got the the article from the fine wood working techniques books #4 page 191. I don't have the magazines but according to the book it relates to issues 20-25.

   Hope this is the one you are looking for.

   As an aside have you found a source for wood business card stock. I have perforated paper 8.5 x 11 sheets that can be printed on a PC but have yet to find same in wood form.

   Regards,

   cardsofwood.com has printable veneers - not perforated but I'm sure a woodworker could figure out how to manage that.

   I was looking for the same thing, a hidden wood hinge for another project.  I ended up buying a wooden card holder from Amazon.  It was around $16.00.  Its just box joints that have a hinge pin drilled down the center of the joint.  The box joints are rounded just enought to pass each other.  That leaves a 1/16" gap with this design. It does not look too bad.  A wood cap holds the hinge pin in place.  It looks to have been made functional then sanded to even it out.  The case is 4.375" x 3" x .375" outside and 3.750" x 2.187" x .125" inside.  I could e-mail you a picture.  I'm not able to post.  (that would be from lack of trying).  Hope this helps.
