    What material? Mate was making them out of Lion Red cans. Not sure if it had to be Lion Red, but that's what he used. Note he refused to participate in the act of emptying the cans... The method of making the checks was rather crude, a hole punch to make discs and a punch and die that produced a cup that fell straight through into a cup and was ready to be used. Hammer-operated, and I recall it was a mind numbing job. Probably the kind of thing a Lion Red drinker would enjoy to be fair...
