No More Busted Knuckles

Recommended Posts

Well, I think I've broken my last knuckle trying to get a clean imprint from various stamps, AND I didn't have to pay Tandy $500 bucks for it....

Harbor Freight had in stock an ARBOR PRESS that's good for 1000# press weight for 35$.

It's about a dollar a pound, but I spent about 30 minutes last night and turned out a dozen coasters with seven stamps each and didn't even break a sweat.

I LIKE IT!

I haven't BROKEN any knuckles, but I've sure banged up the first one on my left index finger....

I wish they'd just make longer punches.....

It was just the one, but Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez did it hurt.

Put me off of leatherworking until it quit. And everytime I went to stamp something (other than a basketweave) there'd be that part of my mind.....

Anyway, the best part was saving over 450 bucks. That I can live with.
