Anyone have any examples of DIY signs (Chalkboard or whiteboard) that they made to display what beers they have on tap? Any one order a custom sign? I'm looking to Buy/build a custom sign with wood boarders and maybe some permanent printing, and space to list beers on tap.

Drum, Might be good to post to this thread: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=159950 I made a mistake with this thread, with one already out there.
