    I am in the process of developing an idea but before I go to much farther I would like to know if there is any interest in these coasters. Right now it would be a limited run however if they do well we may add them as a full store item in the future.

    This is a example to give an idea of what I have come up with so far. The idea is to burn the FHC Logo into them with a brand and then preserve them. The left and right coasters here are just to see how it would look. The final product would be burned and preserved all in one.

    Again this in the experiment phase but I would love your feedback on them. Thanks everyone!

    Pete

    It's a great start- but.....
    Could you match the FHC font, have it cast/whatever into a branding head, and thus speed production and maintain consistency?

    If the interest is there we would order a branding iron so we can mass produce them. As of right now I am making a few as a test and sealing them in my wood shop. Ideally I would be able to make them per order out of something other than walnut thats more dense and durable.
