RodrigoV Report post Posted October 29, 2015 In this video you can se the size of a Robert Beard BW-0 basketwave stamp, if you want something a lil' bit bigger you can choose the X812 or X502-2 from leathercrafttools dot com here is the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPq5yWliapw Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thor Report post Posted October 29, 2015 If you click on the pictures at Barry King's website they'll show the dimension in fractional inch. Just like so Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dfrensdorff Report post Posted October 29, 2015 Thanks both of you .... I think, to start out I will be getting the 812 .... Barry Kings are nice but $$$$$.......... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just remember the smaller you go the more important it is to have a REALLY good and detailed stamp. You won't regret spending the extra for a BK stamp. It will make your life a lot easier. Here is a picture of a 1 1/2" belt with the #2 BK rope stamp and a #2 BK crescent border stamp. The #2 is the third from the right on Thor's picture above.

Thanks.... I tend to agree with you.....I really like that belt pattern.....nice work. Maybe I should invest in some BK stamps..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Nelson Report post Posted October 31, 2015 Clay Miller, Temple Texas made the smallest one I have ever seen. Tiny, Like a little less than 1/4" long. perfect stamp. I think he is on the forum somewhere. I can get his # if you would like this weekend. He is very reasonable on his tools for the quality they are. Bevelers are out of this world good.
