Gnaw man - use the new cool Sony MP3 earlobe player that plugs into the ear when mounted on the ear.
Store vitals there and listen to the tunes. Made for the X ladies so it seems. Projects text
on the neck as to song...

Simply wild.

As a general rule (assuming I remember it correctly) neck chains should
break at no more than 10 lbs force to prevent injury. It doesn't have to

be

the whole chain. It can be the clasp serving as a weak link.

I would like to buy several dog tags for my family. I have an engraver

Second question, what chain to use for them that's most comfortable,
unconspicuous and yet strong. Two adults, one 4 year old and one
infant soon to appear. Something cheap that can be bought off ebay
would be better.

Third, is there some way to safely attach a dog tag to an infant in
case of emergency, so that he does not strangle himself with it.

Lots of surplus places that will stamp out dogtags on their machines.
other than that there is always the cheap alternative of cutting them
out from sheet aluminum yourself.

Thanks. The tags are 40 cents each on ebay, it's chump
change. I already have an engraver, which my wife can use very
beautifully (she has excellent handwriting and engraving skills and
makes beautiful engravings).

I guess my main question is about chains.


The military standard issue is ball chain. My set has been threaded
though a sleeve made from the outer layer of parachute cord. A little
heat from a lighter and some fast finder work and the ends will seal

and

grip the chain. Quieter, and not as cold.

That's a nice idea.


The baby. Try a velcro or elastic closure on an ankle bracelet under
his or her sock or booty. In a dire emergency I would consider a

Sharpie

marker and mark the child's name and your SSN or some other traceable
info onto the childs leg, arm or chest.

That's another good idea. These markings, though, do not last long,
based on experience (he marks himself with these markers a lot).
