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.
