Contributing Member UKRay Posted May 6, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted May 6, 2008 I'm looking for a custom made 'maker' stamp to emboss onto my work. I can't find anywhere to get one in the UK - has anyone got any ideas - and how much would I have to pay to get something made? I would also be very interested to see examples of other people's maker stamps and, hopefully, look forward to recognising a few!

Ambassador leatheroo Posted May 6, 2008 Ambassador Report Posted May 6, 2008 hey ray, one of our members makes great makers stamps. Dbarleather made my stamp for me. I live in australia and it was far cheaper for him to make it and send it to me than to get one made in australia. You can send him your artwork or discuss with him what you need.

Hilly Posted May 6, 2008 Report Posted May 6, 2008 Dbarleather made mine, too, and shipped it the same day as I put in my order! I had it 2 days after that. Very fast, and the stamp is excellent. Quote

yaklady Posted May 7, 2008 Report Posted May 7, 2008 Jeff made mine, too, and I highly recommend him. I think he could make anything you want. He does excellent work, and he's quick. Kathy Quote All bad yaks make their way to the freezer.
Members Srigs Posted May 8, 2008 Members Report Posted May 8, 2008 Do what I did... Go to a local tool and die technical school and have them make one for you. Mine turned out great and I helped a student learn how to do the work. Win-Win for everyone. Took about 6 weeks from start to end and was priced right.
