MDN Laser Engraving® - "Wooden Nickel" Tupelo Masonic Lodge No. 318 F&AM

Tupelo Masonic Lodge No. 318 F&AM would like to thank Mr. Mike Neely at MDN Laser Engraving, in Tupelo, Ms. for his work on our version of the old "Wooden Nickel". MDN used a high tech, precision laser to convert our official lodge seal into a 3D portrait of the emblem, and then engraved it into a piece of wood and shaped into a size that is slightly larger than a silver dollar.

This "Wooden Nickel" concept is a 'working idea, in progress', with the intent being for our lodge to be able to give visiting brethren and new members, a token of our appreciation.

This unique, one of a kind seal, was designed by Bro John Paul Gomez, at FraternalTies and we are excited to see that it is now coming to life in a variety of ways.

We are very grateful to both, MDN Laser Engraving and FraternalTies, for their contributions and support of our lodge.

If you use Facebook and/or Twitter, below is a link to both companies business pages. Take just a moment to Like or Follow their pages. Both offer quality work with excellent customer service! Be sure to tell them that Tupelo Masonic Lodge sent you!
