Over the last few years, I've seen occasional humorous references to "Vast Right-Wing
Conspiracy Secret Decoder Rings."
But I've never seen one for sale.
I decided, one day, that I had to have one, and did a web search, and found
zilch.
So I made some myself.

Not being much of a hobbiest, I simply went out and bought
a few from a company that sells them as advertising trinkets
for their encryption hardware business: cryptobuddy.biz. These
are cheap plastic trinkets that came with CryptoBuddy's logo.
(See picture at left.)
It may not be clear from the picture, but these are cheap plastic rings
with a flat circular disk on the front. Under the disk are two alphabets
arranged in concentric circles, in the disk are two small holes that show
one letter from each alphabet, which ones depending upon how you've
turned it.

Then it was just a matter peeling off their label and sticking on
mine. I worked up a logo, printed a bunch out on a sheet of sticky label
material, cut them out, punched holes for the letters with a paper punch,
and stuck them on the rings.
