Custom Maker's Stamp

[northquabbin]

I was wondering if anyone has ordered one of these stamps for $35? Tandy has a one like it for $129.99.

I have ordered several from Tuffcase (some for myself, some for gifts for friends) I also have some from other makers.

The Tuffcase stamps are a great value. They will do the job you are looking for. they are not a "deep" stamping as others available but the others are 2X the cost.

Grey Ghost Graphics Makes a very good Delrin "plastic" stamp. Jeff will do custom work, I don't think you can get that from Tuffcase but I never asked them. http://www.greyghostgraphics.com/

One of the finest Maker Stamps I own is from Infinity stamps in Chatsworth CA. http://www.infinitystamps.com/ It is also the most expensive. But it is the Rolls Royce of stamps. The details are very crisp.

For a beginner stamp the Tuffcase will get you started, they will get your items branded with your name and as you improve move up to the GG graphics stamp, Jeff is super to work with and delivery is fast!

Hope this helps,

Hi Northquabbin,

Plastic stamps work very well and are significantly less money than metal ones. I also make them and you can find my shop here:

If you have any questions about them, please feel free to send me an e-mail at: CustomMadeStuff@gmail.com

Thanks

Hi Steve,

I'm planing on getting one of your embossing die stamps soon. From what I can tell, your stamps are the same as what Tandy sells for $130. Don't get me wrong about Tandy. I think they are a great company that offers good stuff at a good price when on sale.

If you like to have a good stamp made from metal I suggest Philips Engravings ( http://www.phillipsengraving.com/Leather_Stamps.html ) Only $44 with the plate back that fits Tandy's handle.

I'm just a happy cutomer and I know we're more happy customers here on the forum too :-)

I also like the one I have from Philips. It's a flat plate made of magnesium, I use my 1-ton arbor press to make the impression.

However, I'm liking Steve's , I may have to give him a shout.

I just got mine in from Steve at CustomMadeStuff.

I ordered it Tues and came in the mail today.

Steve furnished me a proof of it before he made it of course, and it has turned out perfect.

Great customer service and the price can't be beat.

It's Delrin, but I believe it makes as good of an impression as the metal ones I have.

Thanks Steve!!
