bison Posted August 30, 2010 Report Posted August 30, 2010 I've finished a leather planner/notebook cover and the customer wants to know if I can now stamp initials on it. Not sure how that would work. Anyone out there ever done that? If so, how'd you do it? How'd it turn out? Attached is an image of the piece. I sure appreciate any help you can give me. Quote
Ambassador Luke Hatley Posted August 30, 2010 Ambassador Report Posted August 30, 2010 Bison i have did it before, wet the Leather well, let it dry some. cross your fingers and hold your breath, then hope the letters dont bounce if you are stamping the name, then again if you are carving the letters, i think it would be o k.....But you might have water marks..... Yes there are Varables!!! Quote Luke

Being old has an advantage.......nobody expects me to do anything in a hurry.
