Yes I have the handle too. Just trying the heat. Never had a brass stamp and curious how it will hold up to hammering. Thought it would work easier on odd shaped stuff. I hav an arbor press but it does not have metric thread. Will work something out.

Thanks. I will try that.

This is from Leatherstampmaker.com. Got it today. I got the electric heater too. Only a little small. 15/16 inch that I requested. May get another in 1 1/4 later. Do you wet the leather to stamp with a heated stamp? I did not put the usual “maker” in the center. Figured people could figure that out. This was $62 in Brass, $84 maybe in 1 1/4 inch size. Steel was $205 another place.

Thanks A lot Bert but Pastor Bob reworked it for me this weekend. Great to have multiple friends.

I got some stuff at Walmart called Shoe Goo. Clear latex, kinda like caulk. Designed to repair athletic shoes, rubber, canvas and leather. It will stick to leather. The thing I put it on has not come back for repair but it has only been gone 10 days.

Thanks very much for your offer and I am sorry for the delayed reply. Pastor Bob PM ed me and offered to work on it as well. I needed to change my email on the site and for some reason got locked out a while. The site somehow did not accept the new email. I also had a gmail account I rarely use so I tried it and the site was OK with it. Thanks again for your offer of help.

Thanks but I don’t have Corel. Something else to buy. Printed out 3 things, glued and scanned. Got one quote, waiting on the other. Also made one possibility with the scullery clay.

Thanks Guys. The Transform action was not in my older version of Word but my wife's laptop has it. I got the curved letters done in Word and the center done in Paint but I can't get them together. May just print both out and literally cut and paste and scan. Fred K. i told the guy I made the Yeti carrier for the other day that a guy in Northern Ireland sent me a pattern. He was not expecting that,

Yes. I have it up in Paint now and can’t find a place to curve a line of text. Supposed to be in Word to do the same thing. Have not found that button yet but I will try tonite.

I prefer Jim Beam. I think the companies I investigated just want a good likeness and will create the design in their software. And again, I know what I want. Curving a line of text is all I am having trouble with. If not I can just draw it on paper, scan it and email the file I guess. But Word has templates for calendars, birthday cards, invitations. I bet someone has done one of these. And yes I will press or stamp directly into veg tanned leather. I just wanted to get far from computers in leather work.

I was looking at companies to get a makers mark. I know what I want but getting this into a graphics file that they want I am a little rusty at. Anybody got a template in Word, Paint, Publisher, etc? Don’t have any kind of Cad. Thanks.

Thanks

I am left handed and by the time you become an adult you have learned to use right hand tools, guns, guitars, etc. in some manner left handed. Left hand designed tools are now useless/awkward to me.

I use the old brown file folders. Legal size for bigger stuff. Or you can use manila file folders if you prefer khaki.

This one has the separate strap.

The Al Stohlman Tandy holster book has a shoulder holster pattern with a curved strap. Not sure how to send it to you.

I needed a really keen point awl for opening holes to handsew. So I took a 2 inch wood ball from some craft store, drilled a tiny hole, and pushed one of my hand stitching needles into it. Makes the hole size I need for those needles.

Titebond lll was not good. Popped loose with the Ist stitches. Guess I will squirt Elmer’s in crevice after I get done.

Seems like I got them at Home Depot or Lowe’s but they had to hunt.

Yes that should work. The male thread is on the handle.
