Magic The Gathering Life Counter

There are way too many magic cards floating around this house. Currently there are two overflowing 5000 count boxes on the bedroom floor, and thats just the commons.

I've seen these floating around on the internet and also in the hands of a player at the local game store, so I thought I'd give it a shot. These ones are between 10-11 cards glued together, instead of the foam inserts. For the counter, I just used some sead beads and beading wire. Super easy to make if you have a bunch of land around.
