I was debating on the dry erase handles but think I will make a small chalk board for the front panel of the door instead.

I picked it up on ebay for about $15. But I just bought some tap handle inserts, so I'm going to make my own. I'm thinking I'll carve my own this winter. http://www.midwestsupplies.com/stainless-steel-dual-threaded-insert-for-wooden-taphandles.html

First one to market it gets my money.

Typically they'll use slats from a bourbon barrel and paint the inside with chalkboard paint (though I'm sure there are other methods....).

Posted: 8/11/2012 2:09:18 PM We have a couple of different ones for beers we get, BUT... MY FAVORITE ones are 2 Sam Adams handles... an "old" seasonal & the "New Seasonal" you see in use now. The "new seasonal" is best in my opinion, because it doesn't say "Sam Adams" anywhere. I like them because the top where the type of beer is, is just a card that slips in. (thus I can change it). We make a "tap label" for our home brews & stick it in. If it's a commercial, we'll print or make a label for it. The "old style" has Sam Adams VERY SMALL in script, so it's barely noticeable.

Weld a nut or handle or whatever in the center.
