Re: Labels


Kay requested:-

 *aluminum* popcicle stick labels. Does anybody have a source for these? - 
about 1" by 8" by 3/8", and I'd like to find the same >size in aluminum.

The least expensive source is probably your local metal supply shop.  They 
will have a wide range of basic al material, including strips of the size 
you want.  You can either cut them up yourself using a hacksaw or the shop 
will cut them up for a few cents a marker.

I using masking tape on them for a temporary label, using a waterproof 
marker.  This last a few months although the tape is a devil to get off.  I 
then add a permanent label using special computer compatable plastic labels. 
If I cannot get the masking tape off, I simple reverse the marker and put 
the new label on the other end.  My permanent markers are like new after 
three years of our cold winters.
