Default Wooden name tags

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Our club used to fine the members who did not wear a turned name tag. I'll
describe mine: Oak, about 2" in diameter, turned to look like the head of a
whiskey barrel, with a tiny wooden valve near the bottom edge. Woodburned
lettering said, "Leo--Aged in the wood." (I'm a senior citizen.)

I made a bunch of oval-shaped badges by slicing a round piece diagonally. I
offered them for rent to members for 1 cent less than the fine for not
having one. I got no takers.
