  4. Don't leave home without them... Thanks for the vote of confidence, and some nice work you're displaying on your website! Glad you like our stamps. Greetings from sunny New Hampshire!
  5. Hello leatherworkers, I've just updated my website, and I thought I would see what everyone thinks. My URL is: http://elwelkerleatherstamps.com Feel free to post your questions and comments. Thanks, and Happy Leatherworking!
  6. Our stamps do cost a little more, but they are all hand-tooled. This process takes longer than the process machined leather stamps you will find for less, but we believe they make a superior stamping tool. You'll find our prices to be in line with other quality stamp makers. Thank you for your input!
  7. Hello fellow leatherworkers, Are you having trouble finding leather stamps in the exact sizes you want and need? Well, new at Welker Handmade Leather Stamps, we are now offering to make our current stamp listings to the exact size you want. Check our our website at: http://elwelkerleatherstamps.com to find out more. Happy Leatherworking!

  9. Thank you King's X! Both the 227, 228 sets and the 237, 238 sets have been some of our most popular stamps. Thanks for the vote of confidence, and glad you're happy with the stamps. Best.
  10. Our version of the pear shaders 227 and 228 have a less pronounced hook. You will like the way the curve fits flower leaves and curves. You may have wondered, as I have, why Craftool dropped these so early in their production. I would speculate due to their extra work on that “simple looking" compound curve. material is 1018 steel. Impression approximately 3/16" by 7/16". Available polished or blued. Overall length is 4 1/2". Our Price: $74.99 for set of 2. Please reply to this forum if you're interested.

      Your website looks well designed. One suggestion would be to add a picture of an item that was tooled with your stamps. That way someone could see a finished piece in addition to the individual stamp imprints. You might even have a key that shows which stamps were used in each area. Just an idea.

      One thing that I noticed as a somewhat visually impaired person... is the Font is difficult to read. And come pages have the entire page centered... which makes it hard to read.

      The site is much to cluttered. Use of "white space" needs to be added. background color and topography color on some are much to close and difficult to read. Have your tools and their imprints (with prices) on top. a long page is o.k. Move other verbiage towards the bottom or details of making them on a separate page. We can tell they are quality pieces, let the photos speak for themselves.

A lot of our customers are trying to find something different to make their own leather creations stand out from the crowd. At Welker Handmade, we provide distinction in our tools, plus the best in quality stamping tools that will be more durable and dependable than a lot of the leather stamps on the market today.

  23. Hello fellow leatherworkers, Some of our most popular leather stamping tools are our bevelers, considering we are currently making 3 styles, the Welker Handmade #997, #995, and #701. We think that it's due to the quality we hand build into all of our bevelers, as well as our other lines of handmade leather stamps. For more information about our bevelers, please reply to this forum, or check them out on our website at http://elwelkerleatherstamps.com. As always, we offer FREE SHIPPING within the U.S! Happy Leatherworking! Andy Hopkins Welker Handmade Leather Stamps
