I'm looking for a tagging system that will hold up for at least several
years. I've tried the plastic self looping ones but the permanent ink
isn't, I've tried the 1" x 3" metal (aluminum?) tags with wires but they
break off after a year of wind and weather, and I've tried home made tin
can tops with a heavier gauge wire. The latter has been the most
satisfactory but not being an artist the lettering is less than
satisfactory. What I envison is an army dog tag but the prices I've
gotten for this type of product exceeds $2 or $3 each. Any ideas or is
there enough demand among NAFEX for a service bureau to be established.
If there was enought demand I might be interested in doing this in my
free time. Unfortunately the equipment for this type of system is in the
thousands of dollars.
