Members Warpe Posted July 31, 2011 Members Report Posted July 31, 2011 Just want to know what is a good size for a Maker's Mark? I will be using it on holsters and belts. Thanks Warpe Quote Where quality and comfort come together one stitch at a time. www.gallantgunleather.com
Members Glendon Posted July 31, 2011 Members Report Posted July 31, 2011 It depends on the size of the items you're making. You wouldn't use the same stamp on a belt that you would on a saddle or a small belt makers mark on a saddle. That being said, if you're doing a lot of 1" belts then I would probably get a 3/4" stamp to start with. If you're doing 1-1/2" belts and your holsters have the space then a 1" stamp might be right for you. Quote
King's X Posted August 1, 2011 Report Posted August 1, 2011 I agree. I would not go anything larger than 3/4". I have a nice oval stamp that is within this limit for medium works. Good luck. Quote Greetings from Central Texas! The Grain Side Up blog #TheGrainSideUp

Members JoelR Posted August 21, 2011 Members Report Posted August 21, 2011 I have a 1" and am now looking for 1/2" and some specialty stamps - "Horsehide", "Hand Stitched", etc... So, one size may not fit all.

Members Hell Bent 4 Leather Posted January 2, 2012 Members Report Posted January 2, 2012 (edited) Where can I have a maker's mark made? Currently, I'm simply stamping two 'R's resembling the Rolls Royce logo, but with different lettering, somewhere on each piece I make to represent my nick name 'Road Rash'. I'd like one that's oval and says 'Hell Bent 4 Leather, Hand Made In CSA, Made By Road Rash'. That would be awesome!
