The Fob-O-Matic 3000
At my favorite Hackerspace, Ace Monster Toys (https://www.acemonstertoys.org/), members get 24x7 access using their fob.
When a new member wants to join the community, we need an easy way to assign them a fob. Our fobs are pre-bundled in individual enveloppes with the sign-in instructions. This tool is a simple project that allows us to quickly get the fob number when we are preparing a batch of keys.
The box was 3D printed and designed for this project.
Parts list :
