I like how the person who made the stamp did not try to make the face symmetrical - gives it a charming, quizzical look. 8 hours ago, Brokenolmarine said: That's awesome. If you can't find, or afford, what you need, make it. I know! Isn't it wonderful? I'm envious. To have the ability as well as the talent to make the stamps so well. They are really well made and the impressions are sharp and clear. 5 hours ago, dikman said: Nice! There's some useful looking stamps there. Yes there are. A couple of unusual ones too, at least to me. I can't wait to use them... once it is less cold and I do not mind wet hands. Right now, I am busy shivering! 4 hours ago, Dwight said: He made his own leather stamps out of I believe 20 penny nails . . . they were big ones for sure. Probably something similar. There are some large ones in this lot but some small ones too. I put the rubber bands to prevent them disappearing in that stand. On the large ones, to protect the carved ends when they are on the nail side. Those are really impressive - small and so well carved. Quote Learning is a life-long journey.
Contributing Member fredk Posted January 23 Contributing Member Report Posted January 23 Whist browsing the Royal Armouries website I spotted this book. So it could be a wolf It is what you want it to be I have no experience of coyotes. I don't know what they look like. I've only seen one on 'Road Runner' cartoons!

Someone made them, used them and took care of them and now I will do the same. That right there Sup is the ethos of this hobby. Hope you get lots of use out of em. Good find. Quote
Members SUP Posted January 23 Author Members Report Posted January 23 @toxo, Thank you. I plan to use them as much as possible. Maybe somewhere on the way, I will become reasonably good at tooling. Quote Learning is a life-long journey.
Members SUP Posted January 23 Author Members Report Posted January 23 (edited) @fredk, Yes it could really be any type of canine species, isn't it? And, in spite of living in the US, I have not seem coyotes either. Like you, only from those cartoons. When I first saw road-runners though, I was so disappointed!

We have several around here and I especially like their twilight/night calls. Roadrunners, I mean. JM2C Quote
Members SUP Posted January 24 Author Members Report Posted January 24 @jrdunn You have seen the real ones. I grew up only knowing about them from the cartoons. So naturally, the real ones were different. Just saw them a couple of times while driving across the country. I'm sure they are as appealing as you say they are.
