This is an updated list of the stamps I'm looking for, to use in Scouts. I'm having a really hard time trying to get these stamps. especially the Scout related ones. So, If you have any of them you want to sell, trade or donate, please let me know ASAP. If you want to trade, I have hundreds of the 2D/3D stamps available to trade. Let me know what you are looking for Thanks, Dale Stamps Needed for Scouts 08 20 2022.pdf

I'm looking for the following leather stamps. If you have any of them please let me know. I will buy them or we can do a trade. I have lots of stamps that you might want. Please note the stamp number to the left of the image. That is the exact stamp I'm looking for. Note that there are 2 stamps that do not have an image. Both of these are the Bobcat badge for Cub Scouts. They look the same as the Craftool version except one has NO NUMBER and the other is numbered 8403 on the back of the stamp. My phone number is at the top of the page. Feel free to call or text. Thanks, Dale Stamps Needed - Updated 04 09 2022.pdf

I'm trying to organize my 3d stamps into categories. This includes the 3d stamp sets also. Between Craftool, Midas, The Leather Factory and the various stamp sets, there are around 1,000 2d/3d stamps. My plan is to stamp them on leather squares, then organize them in notebooks in those plastic sheets that hold slides or baseball cards. I work with scouts and want them to sign out these stamps instead of leaving them out. Many of the stamps are expensive to replace. You would be surprised how many get "lost". I realize that a particular stamp may fall under more than 1 category so i will make multiple copies to cover all the categories they fit in. The categories I have so far are: Animals/Insects/Reptiles (Should these be separate?) Native American Symbols Western Scouts/Youth Groups Religion Nature Biker Organizations Sports Zodiac Celtic Military/First Responder (Tandy just came out with 10 stamps that would fit here) Vehicles Misc. I know I need additional categories since there are so many that don't fall into any of the other categories. So... What categories should I add/delete? What is the minimum number of stamps to start a new category? I'm thinking 6. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks, Dale

Note: I tried to reduce the file size of the photos but couldn't figure it out. So I made it into a PDF and attached it. I am selling these to raise money to buy additional leather tools and supplies for use in Scouts. I have the following leather stamps for sale or trade: Message me with what you want.

I need 2d and 3d leather stamps and sets. I work with scout and youth groups and am trying to get 2 each of all the pictorial leather stamps and stamp sets. If you have some that you are no longer using I could sure use them. Between Craftool, Midas, and The Leather Factory 3d stamps there were about 740 made. Not including the sets. I have less than half of those. So here is the deal: 1. If you could donate stamps that would be fantastic. My address is listed below. In fact I will take any tools that you want to donate. I especially need sets of the 10 "basic" stamps, mallets, swivel knives, tool racks, etc... 2. I have about 260 extra stamps, that I have 3 or more of, that I'm willing to trade for other stamps I need. 3. I am willing to pay for stamps, but to be honest, if you are looking to make a lot of money, then list them on ebay. I would like to buy large lots of the stamps as shipping can get expensive buying stamps one or two at a time. This is what I need: Scout Stamps - I want to get about 6 of each of these, so here is what I need: Note: These stamps may or may not be marked Craftool and the numbers on the stamps may have been used on other stamps. That is why I included the description. Cub Scout Stamps 6 - 8532 - 2 Finger Peace Sign - Not an official scout stamp but it is a symbol for Cub Scouts 1 - 8401 - Cub Scout 5 - No Number - Commonly referred to Cub Scout style 2 2 - 8445 - Tiger Scout 3 - 8442 - Bobcat 1 - 8441 - Wolf 3 - 8443 - Bear 0 - 8444 - Webelos 5 - 8440 - Arrow of Light Boy Scout Stamps 1 - 8402, 8414 or no number - Eagle Emblem 5 - 8508 or 8543 - Eagle with BSA on Front 6 - 8508 - Order of the Arrow - Indian Head 6 - 8545 - Order of the Arrow - Indian Head - looks like 8508 but it is a different look 6 - 8411 or 8511 - Order of the Arrow with arrowhead on it. Wood Badge Stamps 5 - 8544 or 8410 - Axe and Log 4 - 8412 - Fox 5 - 8413 - Buffalo 6 - 8414 - Antelope 6 - 8415 - Bear 6 - 8416 - Owl 6 - 8417 - Bobwhite 4 - 8418 - Beaver 6 - 8419 - Eagle Girl Scout 5 - 8483 - Girl Scout Contemporary 6 - 8484 - Girl Scout Trefoil 5 - 8485 - Daisy 5 - 8486 - Brownie 4-H 4 - 8216 or 8450 - 4-H symbol Midas Stamps - I only have about 1 box of these so I basically need all I can get. There are at least 190 of these stamps up to about 203. The Leather Factory Stamps - People often confuse these with craftool and midas With the exception of a few, the stamps number range is between 8501 and 8548. I have very few of these and no duplicates so I need all of them. Craftool - 8200's - I am surprised at how few of these I have. There are about 69 of these and I have less than 30. with very few duplicates. 8300's - I have a lot of these with duplicates. But I still have about 25 that I need 1 or 2 of. 8400's - I have about half of these with very few duplicates. 8500's - 8500 to 8574 - I only have a handful of these with only 2 that I have duplicates of. 8575 to 8599 - I have 1 of each of these so I need duplicates. 8600's - there are 15 of these that I do not have. I have 1 of each of the rest with few duplicates. 8700's - None Issued 8800 - These came out last year and are the 1/2" or 5/8" 2d and 3d stamps. I have 1 complete set of these but I still need 3 more because I am going to donate 2 to the local scout office. So if you would like to donate any of these they will go directly to the Local BSA. Please send me photos of what you have and how much you want for them or if you are willing to trade. FYI - I have no desire to sell any of this stuff on ebay or any other place. Even the stuff I buy. So I am not looking to get stuff cheap and resell it. They will be used during scout and youth group events and classes. In fact, I just joined a maker space and they already asked me to do leather classes. Any extra stamps and tools that I acquire will be used to trade for what we need and to fill in stamps that our local BSA is missing. However, I have made a few deals with some people that I sell their leather tools, and once I raise an agreed upon dollar amount, I got to keep the rest. That is the only time I will sell stuff. Please send to: Dale Prezgay 4800 Crimson Glory Lane Las Vegas, Nv 89130 702-768-3335 NOTES ON DONATIONS: First of all I realize it is a lot to ask for donations, especially in this economy. Rest assured that these will be used for a good cause. So you can feel good about that. I am mainly trying to get as many of the 2d and 3d stamps as I can. However If you would like to donate any other leather tools we can use them. I am trying to put together 24 tool kits that the scouts, that do the leathercraft merit badge with me, can take home and practice during the week between classes. So I need tools that would go in that toolbox. I also need: 2- 8130 3- 8131 5 - 8135 1 - 8136 The wood alphabet sets any 3/8" set. Preferably with numbers. Like Craftool 4907 & 4908. or Realeather T8133 is a good one. Any 1/4" alphabet sets with numbers. Any other complete or incomplete letter and number sets. I would like to have at least 1 of all the other sets just for variety during certain classes. Any stamp sets - Native American, sports, text terms, emoji, cartoon, zodiac, 8500, 8501, inspirational word, etc. I have very few of these and the smaller ones sometimes get lost. Handle stamp sets - The only ones of these sets that I think the kids would be interested in are the Cross set, Large and Small Barb Wire set, The circle stamps with the star, rope and barb wire in it, Steampunk Gears set, Iron Works set and Armed Services Set, The Baron smiley face stamps. Of course all are welcome. Baron Harley Stamp - The one with the number 1 on it. OK, this one is for me and the parents that I let make their own key FOBs. Other handle stamps - Here is what I'm looking for: Craftool - No-Letter stamps. I'm trying to get all the stamps that are needed to do any of the craftaids that were made. Based on the list I got from the internet, I still need 6 letter stamps and 242 no letter stamps. Any other stamps would be greatly appreciated. Letter stamps, A, C, D, E, G, J, K, L, M, N, P, S, U, V W, Y AND Z stamps are used the most. Baron, Midas, Kelly, Craft Japan and others - Any stamps that are like 2d or 3d stamps would definitely be used by the kids. a lot of the Baron and Craft Japan stamps are like that. Also any stamp that makes an interesting border would be cool. Slickers Edge Bevelers - Especially No 2 and 3 Swivel Knives and blades. Setters - Snap, Rivet, eyelet, etc. Hole punches Embossing tool and wheels - These would really be nice to have. Leather Shears Mallets and Mauls Burnishers Poundo Boards and Clicker pads Any hardware - rivets, snaps, conchos, grommets, spots, buckles, etc... Books, Stencils, Craftaids and patterns Leather kits - even those old ones that never got used. Doesn't everyone need a leather visor. All-in-one dyes - This is the only dye they have time to use. Any high quality tools - I would like to have some of these but I would be afraid they would get stolen. So I would probably trade these for other tools. But feel free to donate them if you want. Cash or Tandy gift cards - Always welcome. I will use these to buy stuff at tandy when it goes on sale or clearance. (I have purchased 3d stamps for as low as 1.25) Anything else I may have forgot to put on this wishlist. Thank you for any donations and especially for reading this far.

I have about 750 leather stamps that I'm going to be listing on ebay soon. But I wanted to give you guys a shot at them 1st. These are stamps I have bought over the years to work with Scouts and other Youth Groups. I was saving them because I wanted to put together multiple sets of tools that I could loan out to these groups. But I realize how impractical (expensive) that goal is. I've decided to focus on expanding the 5 sets of tools that our local BSA Council has along with two sets that I'm putting together. One for short (2-4 hour) classes and the other, a much larger set, for use at summer camps or weekly classes I want to do. The proceeds from selling these tools will go towards the purchase of additional tools, supplies, chairs, and workbenches/HD tables for use in Scout and other Youth Group leatherwork classes. I estimate I need around 9k - 10k to get what I need. This amount includes a trailer to store and haul everything around. It is basically everything needed to do classes almost anywhere as long as there is a room to set up in. The pdf file below, is a list of the Stamps and the prices. If I only have 1 of a particular stamp, you will get that stamp. If I have more than 1, then I will pick it out. I can send photos of the exact stamps before shipping, just ask. There is a 2nd pdf file that shows all the stamps, in boxes, in a post just below this one. PM me if you want anything. I will put the order together then send you a paypal invoice. Please pay within 24 hours from that invoice. Price does not include shipping. For the USA I will ship USPS. Either as a small package, for a few stamps, or Priority Mail for larger orders. A lot can fit in a small flat rate box. For other countries, I will rely on the buyer to recommend how to ship, since I have not done it before. But I'm sure we can work it out. Thanks for looking, Dale PS - If you are interested in donating any leather tools and stamps (or cash) to help out we would appreciate it. Please contact me. dprezgay - 2D 3D Leather Stamps for Sale Excel List - 01 26 2020.pdf Here is a file showing all the stamps in groups. dprezgay - 2D 3D Leather Stamps for Sale - 01 26 2020.pdf

This is an update to the leather tools I need for Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts. (I'll do another post of my progress on leather tools for our Girl Scout Council at a later date). PLEASE LET OTHER LEATHERWORKERS KNOW ABOUT THIS POST. I am currently looking for donations of the tools listed below. NOTE: First of all, I do realize that it is unlikely that I'm going to get everyone in the forum to clean out all their unused leather tools and send them to me. Leather tools are expensive. What I would like is that all the people that read this, think about picking out a few tools that they don't use anymore and send them to me. Maybe you've upgraded to Barry King or another maker. Maybe you have some 3D stamps you know you will never use again. Even if you are going to sell them, you can afford to take a few out and send them my way. If I could get 100 people to do this it's worth the effort. My posts are already much too long so If you would like to discuss any of this with me, send me a message with your phone number and I would be happy to explain, in great detail, what I am trying to do. This all started with me helping out with a Leatherworking Merit Badge class last May and I noticed how incomplete their tool set was and the horrible condition they were in. But once I started looking at their leather tools and programs, it turned into a rabbit hole. I am trying to get our Local (Las Vegas) BSA Council's leather tools in shape. The leather tools that they had were in such poor condition that I had to throw many of them away. It doesn't look like they have any tools or stamps that are less than 20 years old. I donated over 300 stamps to put together some sets of tools for the Day Camps that they put on. Even with what I donated, they are still very much incomplete. These tool sets are loaned to the different districts in our council when they run a Day Camp which are held between May and October. In addition, these sets are loaned out for merit badge classes. I also inventoried the leather tools at the Boy Scout summer camp and was astonished how little they had. I ended up leaving many of my tools and stamps for them to use last summer just so they would have a good selection of 3d stamps and alphabets to choose from. There is a lot they need, just to do basic projects. They don't even have a hole punch or rivet setter. There is a 3rd program called Scout Reach. It is designed to provide opportunities for at-risk children to get a taste of some scouting activities and hopefully get some of them to join the Cub Scout Pack at their school. I looked at their tools and there is almost nothing left. Some of the stamps were so damaged that I couldn't even identify what the stamp was to begin with. They have not included leathercraft in this program for about 2 years. But they very much want to. So after I get the Day Camps and Summer Camp tool sets together, I will concentrate on Scout Reach. Because of the way non-profits work, items purchased for a particular program must stay with that program. Here is what has changed since the last request I posted.: They built a park next to the Council Office and need 1 additional set for day camps that they will keep there and not loan out. I juggled tools around from different programs (even though I wasn't supposed to) in order to spread out excess tools from 1 to another. I talked to the "Grand Poobaa" at the council office and except for about $1,000 budgeted for the new, Park Day Camp, there is no money for leather tools. This set will remain on premises, and not be loaned out. I received about a dozen packages containing a wide variety of leather tools. Most of it is going to the Summer Camp.

Really any stamps would be great. The Summer Camp needs all kinds of handle stamps. I'm trying to put together 24 sets of the "Basic 10 Tools". I need 23-Swivel Knives, 23-8059's (stylus), 10-A104's, 8-B200's, 4-C431's, 6-P206's, 14-S724's, 18-V407's, 22-V707's and 24-X511's For the Summer Camp, I would like to eventually get at least 1 complete set of all Craftool letter, no-letter and Craftool Pro stamps so the kids can make any design from any of the Tandy books and Craftaids. I would also like to get some Midas/Kelly Tool stamps and any from all other brand of leather stamps. On the off chance I receive donations of some premium stamps (Barry King, Linnell, etc...) I will save them for some intermediate and advanced classes I want to offer starting in 2020 or 2021.. I would also like some homemade tools to show the kids. You know, the old timer ones made from nails and bolts and steel rods and such. I have about 6 and they are pretty basic ones, so I would like to have more to show them. ANY LEATHER STAMP, ANY BRAND - We will use them.

The one's I have came from other sets I bought on ebay that were included with the one's I wanted or got them real cheap when Tandy discontinues and clearances them.

I need help getting my gofundme campaign going. I am trying to raise money to purchase leather tools for Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts. I posted a topic in this section a while back and got some very good donations of tools and supplies. But I need a lot more. the link is https://www.gofundme.com/cdwdkpzg I didn't know this, but gofundme requires you to upload your friends from Facebook. The problem is I don't use Facebook so I have no friends. Please take a look at it and if you are willing, send this link to as many leatherworkers and friends that may be interested in helping me. And ask them to please pass it along. A lot of people on this forum never get to this section so it is difficult to get in contact with them. With your help we can make this a successful campaign. Also if you wish to donate leather stamps and tools, please send to the address below. Thank you so much, Dale Prezgay 4800 Crimson Glory Lane Las Vegas, NV 89130

Hi I am looking for an entry level 3D printer for making small items such as a one off stamp or small mould for leather work. thanks in advance

I have a problem i need to solve asap. I am helping the local BSA with their leather program. Raising money and getting tool donations is going to be a big part of that. But the problem at hand is this. Storage of the 2d/3d leather stamps and alphabet sets. The boxes they have are severely worn and need to be replaced. Tandy discontinued the boxes they sold and currently have some plastic racks that will not work for our needs. Springfield Leather has a box that will work but it has an attached lid that makes it awkward when it is opened on the table, as it takes up twice the space. Since I am looking at a custom solution I have come up with one I think is pretty good. Our Council has multiple sets of tools that have to be kept separate. These are the programs they have: Cub Scout Day Camp - There are supposed to be 4 identical sets of tools that are loaned to the districts whenever they are doing a day camp. They handle up to 20 scouts at a time with multiple sessions throughout the day.These sets are also used for the Leatherwork Merit Badge events sponsored by the council with 20 scouts per class. Usually 2 classes in a day. BSA Scout Reach - There are supposed to be 4 identical sets of tools for use in this program for about 40 kids to use the tools at a time with 3 or 4 groups that use them that day. BSA Summer Camp - Last year our council had 2 summer camps running, one outside Las Vegas and one in Utah. So there are 2 sets of tools that are kept at their respective camps. So there are 10 sets of tools that need to be managed with 8 that are supposed to be mobile. I am thinking of building a front-opening box with trays, of 3/4" plywood,that can be removed and set on a table. The trays would be close enough that the tray above would act as a stop so the stamps wouldn't shift during transport. One of the designs I am considering is having a row of stamps and just below it a leather strip with the stamp impression and stamp number on it. This way I can easily see if anything is missing when the set gets turned in. The problem is that this takes up a little more than twice the space as the regular stamp box. But it will keep the stamps in order. This will apply to the alphabet sets as well. For my own stamps, I used to keep them in the boxes, stacked in a cabinet but every time I wanted a specific stamp or alphabet set it always seemed to be the bottom box I needed. Now I keep them in one of those flat file cabinets commonly known as blueprint, map or art cabinets. Actually I have 3 of them with a total of 15 drawers. Now all the alphabet and 3d stamps are spread out in a single layer. My alphabet sets take up 3 drawers. The 2d/3d stamps including the stamp sets (sports, native american, emojis, etc...) take up 4 and the rest are filled with leather tools and stuff. After I create the same custom trays like I describer above, my 3d stamps will probably use at least 6 drawers. I've seen them on offerup for as little as 90.00 each, so they are a bargain. But not great for mobility. Any other ideas out there? Dale

I am in need of the following Craftool 2d/3d stamps for use with youth groups with Scouts and Church. They are the religious stamps in the 8500's and I need to get 2 sets. 8506 Cherub Angle 8507 Angle 8508 Church 8509 Flaming Cross 8510 Crossed Nails 8511 Sword in Bible 8512 Fish Sign 8513 Dove 8514 Lamb with Sheppard's Hook 8523 Flag of Isreal 8524 Star of David 8525 Chalice 8526 10 Commandments 8527 Eternal Flame 8528 Dreidel 8529 Menorah 8530 Shofae Horn 8531 Mezuzah 8532 2 Finger Peace Sign 8533 Celtic Cross 8534 Angle 8535 Angle If you have these sitting around and not using them they will be well used with me. PM me with details. Thanks, Dale

Hi All, I am new to leather work and new to the forum. I wanted to add my name to the last project I made and decided to 3D-print a stamp instead of buying one. The first step was to design a stamp, I did this using a mixture of Photoshop (GIMP is a great alternative) and FreeCad. Once I had my design, I printed it using my PURSIA I3. This was the result; After some prep; I applied it to some leather off-cuts. (Please excuse the terrible stitch experiment here, I was using an old singer sewing machine); I was quite impressed with the result. I'm going to try it with 2 clamps next time, hopefully this will spread the pressure more evenly. The grain effect was unintentional, but I quite like it. Please let me know your thoughts, MARSHY.

Not quite leather but I'm pretty pleased with this creation from my new 3D printer. Created a Jig that allows me to lay this and lock it on the edge of a 1 1/2 inch belt. Although only 4 holes you can side it up and down the belt to get the 5-7 holes most people seem to prefer for belts. The end was rounded to allow to either cut or draw the guide lines for cutting the end of the belt. Jig is 5 mm thick and the two sides extend another 2 mm past to allow the belt to sit cleanly in the jig. Already thinking about how this could assist with stamping and spacing repeat patterns. Any other ideas where this would prove useful in leather work? Love to hear any thoughts.

A while back a man posted some of these and I was dying to know how to do it. These are made with single pieces of leather. He sent me the pattern and it only took me 3 days to figure it out, LOL. WITH help from everyone in Chat. But I think they're just adorable.

Album here. Hello everyone. It's been a while since I last posted, and honestly I haven't been doing much. Unfortunately hobbies take money, and there just hasn't been enough to spend on hobbies lately. This was inspired by a member on another site showing his 3D printed belt template. I have enough knowledge of CAD products to be dangerous, so I figured I'd give it a try. The linked album was the result. I used Sketchup, which I knew nothing about. After following the first 3 how-to's they have, this is what I came up with. Initially I tried importing my existing CAD template, but Sketchup wouldn't allow me to push/pull to make a 3d object. I think this took me about 30 minutes or so to whip up. Now that I know what to do it shouldn't take more than 5 for the other templates I have planned. The most complicated part was getting the point right. None of the arcs would make this type of English point. What I wound up doing is drawing an equilateral rectangle, then two circles centered on two points, then breaking everything outside of the intended point. Also, Sketchup doesn't have the ability to save in STL file format, which is what most 3d printers read. I had to install the "Sketchup STL" extension, which gave me the ability to export the STL file. I might make a 2nd version of this template. The holes are a tad too big for my scratch awl to properly/accurately center. If you're wondering about the odd length, it's because of the print area that's available on the 3d printer I used. The print field is 6"x6"x10", but max size on your parts can only be 1/4" less than that. I could have printed it vertically, but that would have required a support structure which I wasn't too interested in creating. If you have access to a 3d printer, give this a try. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
