Great idea, I love it! If I still brewed beer, I’d totally rip that off and put something similar on my taps!

Thanks. I got out of brewing as well, I just let my friends do it now. I've already got enough hobbies that take up lots of space and money.

I hear you on that! Plus, at least around here, excellent craft brew is easy to come by.

As promised, here are the finished tap handles at work. Six down, ten to go.

Those look so cool, nik! They look so much more interesting than those boring wood handles.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

Love the ide3a and the stones are fascinating to me. I have never seen that stone before. As for the beer, I have never acquired a taste for it...and no, I don't drink coffee, tea, or soda either. Zero cal flavored water, water, and broth. I am in the TMI zone now.
