Laser etched plexiglass The makers mark is glued the a steel plate I have stamps that are 6” x 6”. As long as you use a steel plate and press in multiple places it is good to go Quote Singer 66, Chi Chi Patcher, Rex 26-188, singer 29k62 , 2-needles D.C.F.M

I got mine about a year ago now... Best couple hundred I've spent in some time. Mine is on a 1" square, makes the stamp about 15/16" diameter. What do you use to set it? Ive got a 3# deadblow that works pretty good. Quote

I got 2 makers stamps a 1" & 1½" For setting I bought the big Barry king maul I can't remember for sure, but I think it is 32oz. I know if you don't case your leather good enough, the 1½" sometimes takes a couple hits. Quote
