rdb Report post Posted May 9, 2008 Does anyone know if there is bear paw stamp available?David Genadek David, You had me looking all over the internet for this for the past hour...no luck! I did see a Craftool 3D of the wolf Paw print at Zack's and others, but that's it. Strange there isn't a series of different animal prints.... Good luck, but you may be forced to have one made. Or if it's for a one time project, maybe carve it into leather once, and then take some liquid steel (in a tube) to make a stamp that won't last long, but just might work.

Thank you for your time I had done the same thing. The deal is this I have a friend that helped me do some electrical around here,30,000 feet of wire worth. In exchange she wanted to do her own saddle. Last night she told me she wanted to put bear paw on it so I thought surely they would have a bear paw stamp, it would make a neat border. Oh well I have done stamps before here are two examples. But but how can their not be a Bear Paw stamp surely for the Scouting market.

K-Man Report post Posted May 9, 2008 Try Oswosso - they make embossing dies from your design. They just don't put the handle on it. I suspect you could find someone easily enough that could do that for you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suspect you could find someone easily enough that could do that for you. Thanks I have several sources for that I just thought for sure some one would have a bear paw pre made. Whats wrong with them, they don't have exactly what I want? David Genadek Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Delrin™ will be a 5 1/2" shaft and the Mag. can have a center or hefty shaft or you can buy one from TLF. Let me know how we can help you with this.

Cecil Report post Posted May 11, 2008 (edited) Does anyone know if there is bear paw stamp available?David Genadek David: The back cover of Al Stohlman's Figure Carving Finesse has Bear and other animal Paw prints on it. I have used these to put animal tracks on projects in the past. Edited May 11, 2008 by Cecil Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

indypbear Report post Posted May 20, 2008 (edited) David, Check in the current TLF catalog on page 39. There is a small bear paw stamp in the Native American Symbol Stamp set. The whole set is only $21.00 if you are on business pricing with them. The other resource is Silver Creek Leather Co. in New Albany, IN. Hope this helps!

deloid Report post Posted July 5, 2012 Old thread but I am also interested in a good bear paw print. I don't think I will be able to find one but this feller in Prague seems to have a cast and solder technique down. i don't like the proportion of his bear stamp so I want to try and make a (fore and back foot) track Blackbear stamp. His latest sold item is here: Ended ebay auction Any tips on how to make my own? thanks- Dean Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BearMan Report post Posted July 6, 2012 Hi Everybody, Here's a Bear Paw stamp I got a while back. I think it was from the Guy in the Chek (sp) Republic. It seems to be pretty well made. Look at the right edge. Ed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Look at the right edge. Ed That's his work on e-bay. He does a good job with his process but this particular bear print is all out of proportion. I'd like to make or buy one that is more realistic in appearance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deloid Report post Posted October 3, 2012 I see bear paw and all sorts of animal track stamps on Ebay. search "leather tools" I just repeated the search now- There is the badly proportioned Grizzly track I mentioned previously and a "Teddy bear" track. Nothing close to realistic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Try contacting Robert Beard at Pro Tools. He just made a pretty realistic set for me. I'd post a picture but don't have one available at the moment.
