Members Tkleather1 Posted July 31, 2009 Members Report Posted July 31, 2009 I jsut want to thank Brenda at Lasergiftcreations.com for making me a new Makers mark. I am very happy with not only the stamp but also dealing with all of my stupid questions. Brenda did a great job with the stamp and had incredible customer service. Thank you Brenda. I will post a picture of the impression later today when I get back home. Tim TK-Leather Quote Tim Worley TK-Leather If you don't ask and dont try how are you gonna learn anything?
Members Deb59 Posted August 1, 2009 Members Report Posted August 1, 2009 I second that - I just got mine in the mail today from Brenda. I ordered it on Monday - Talk about quick service!!! I will get a picture posted as well. Thanks Brenda!!! Quote

Members oldtimer Posted September 9, 2009 Members Report Posted September 9, 2009 I got my new maker mark this week also. I had one made by The Green Parrot, made of some kind of nylon material a couple of years ago, but I accidently dropped it on my stone and the edge around my name broke and the stamp was of no use anymore, so I ordered a new one made of engraved, solid brass. I´ll make a new handle from stainless steel. The big advantage is the square shape which makes it easy to adjust to the proper position. / Knut Quote "The gun fight at the O.K. corral was actually started by two saddlemakers sitting around a bottle of whiskey talking about saddle fitting"...

Members oldtimer Posted September 10, 2009 Members Report Posted September 10, 2009 Who did you get that one from? Bought here in Sweden from http://www.stampelfabriken.se/index.html?katid=sub20060530202908321∏=Brännstämplar. It is supposed to give heat imprints along with a handle similar to a soldering iron / Knut Quote "The gun fight at the O.K. corral was actually started by two saddlemakers sitting around a bottle of whiskey talking about saddle fitting"...

Members Bar C Leather Posted October 19, 2009 Members Report Posted October 19, 2009 I got two nylon ones and they will work for now, I just don't like how much bounce they have. Just remember NOT to use your maul or mallet for imprinting...you need to use a metal hammer to reduce the bounce!! I can't wait to have a nice metal one made that can be used with a heating element also! Infiniti Stamps is who I plan to use but not 100% sure yet. Quote

Members dragoncut Posted October 20, 2009 Members Report Posted October 20, 2009 I have started making some makers stamp and found that using a dead blow hammer works great. You get zero bounce even with the Delrin stamps. Quote
Moderator Art Posted October 20, 2009 Moderator Report Posted October 20, 2009 I use a Barry King 96oz maul on a Infinity Stamp with the work on a surface plate that sits on a circa '40s or '50s GI metal desk sitting on a concrete floor. Deep impression and no bounce no how. Art I got two nylon ones and they will work for now, I just don't like how much bounce they have.
