Contributing Member fredk Posted May 17, 2023 Contributing Member Report Posted May 17, 2023 Yes, but I reckon it would need to be quite thick to with-stand either a thump from a mallet or pressure from a press Quote Al speling misteaks aer all mi own werk..

PastorBob Posted May 19, 2023 Report Posted May 19, 2023 I use 1/4" plexi and sandwich it between a metal plate and a thick piece of leather, then squeeze gently with an arbor press.

Contributing Member fredk Posted May 20, 2023 Contributing Member Report Posted May 20, 2023 Interesting. An off-side look to what a stamp can do Quote Al speling misteaks aer all mi own werk..
CFM chuck123wapati Posted May 20, 2023 CFM Report Posted May 20, 2023 We could use a good stamping thread where everyone can show the different ways to use them.
